Speed of Silence

All the letters I ever wrote you And some of them I even sent All this time we've been waiting For this moment to arrive And now it's here Now I know I could kiss you But before I do Do we want to let go Of this magic And let it turn to truth From mystery Let all this hope be history And it's as fast as fear As it cuts away the sound And slaps you when you're smiling Just how easily you lose Everything you've found At the speed of silence When you told me you loved me And I didn't say a word I said I was sorry And you pretended You never heard at all It's funny how the tears Can well up But neither of us ever drown How many times We bring the sun up, sure It won't fall down And there it goes And leaves us staring At our toes It's the way the wind blows the water But nothing underneath it moves When I asked you what you wanted You didn't speak and then I knew Everything was ruined again It's the way the wind blows the water But nothing underneath it moves When I asked you what you wanted You didn't speak and then I knew Everything was ruined again
