Lyrics

WITHOUT A WORD

WITHOUT A WORD SHE SPEAKS TO ME
IN SOME FAMILIAR TONE
AND AS THE WORDS, THEY CROSS HER LIPS
I FEEL LIKE I?M ALONE
SHE ONLY TALKS OF MAGAZINES
OR DRINKS THAT SHE HAS TRIED
BUT WHEN IT GETS MORE PERSONAL
I SEEM TO BE DENIED

WITHOUT A WORD SHE TALKS TO ME
TRYING TO MAKE SENSE
AND AS SHE?S TUGGING AT MY WILL
SHE CAN?T PULL ME FROM THIS FENCE
?CAUSE THERE?S A SECRET THAT SHE KEEPS
AND IT COULDN?T HURT TO KNOW
BUT I?VE GOT SECRETS OF MY OWN
AND THEY?RE TELLING ME TO GO

Bridge:
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE MAGIC WHEN HER EYES MET MINE?
IT?S LIKE A LIFETIME PASSED US BY IN A HEARTBEAT?S TIME
AND I DON?T KNOW WHERE TO GO FROM HERE
AS SHE SLIPS ON OUT OF SIGHT
I?M HOLDING ON TO EMPTY AIR ON A COLD, DARK NIGHT

WITHOUT A WORD SHE LIES TO ME
BUT SWEARS IT?S TRUTH SHE TELLS
AND THOUGH I?M FED UP WITH HER ACT
I?M TAKEN BY HER SPELLS
WITHOUT A SOUND SHE SINGS TO ME
AND I?VE HEARD THE SONG BEFORE
LIKE AN OLD FAMILIAR SHELL
THAT CRASHES TO THE SHORE

Repeat Bridge

WITHOUT A WORD SHE SPEAKS TO ME
WITHOUT A TEAR SHE CRIES
AND WE DON?T HAVE TO MAKE A SOUND
AS WE?RE SAYING OUR GOODBYES
