Lyric

The kindness that I let slip away

Is buried deep inside my heart’s own forest

The smile that faded into the night

Is sinking slowly in the fog’s embrace

Sometimes we throw away what we love

Scolded by the voice inside our soul

Even though we never meant to lose it

We still let go, and now it’s gone

No one to find it, no one to care

No one will notice, it’s just in the air

Only the silence, only the time

Passing me by, leaving me blind

One day, someone stops and turns around

Sees the sadness we abandoned on the ground

Puts it gently in a cage called love

And writes a story we were dreaming of

The joy I once knew slips through the rain

The tenderness I lost flies with the birds

The care I dropped along the way

Is carried off into the endless sky

Sometimes we cross the lines we shouldn’t cross

Yelling at the ones we treasure most

Even though our hearts were full of meaning

We make mistakes, and love gets lost

No one to find it, no one to care

No one will notice, it’s just in the air

Only the silence, only the time

Passing me by, leaving me blind

Someday, someone’s heart will hear the sound

Of the sadness we abandoned on the ground

Takes it softly to a cage called love

And leads it to the place of dreams above
