Lyric

The words you said so long ago

Inside the light we used to know

They stand out sharp and bleeding clear

Engraved inside my heart with fear

If all we do is make us bleed

Is this the kind of love we need?

Should we just stop the way we meet?

And leave our talking incomplete?

If there’s a wind between us two

Let’s step away from what we knew

A little distance, out of view

A little kinder, me and you

Until this unrequited love passes by

Beneath the fading summer sky

Inside a drowsy, shallow sleep

I trusted skies we couldn't keep

A foolish boy who lost the game

I cried alone and called your name

If we accept the things we face

Should we say goodbye to this place?

Without a question in our mind

Without the grace to be forgiven and kind?

If there’s a wall between our space

Let’s stop the rush and slow the pace

Let's just refuse to play the part

And give some rest to every heart

Until we find the love we want to save

Inside the silence that we crave

If there’s a wind between us two

Let’s step away from what we knew

A little distance, out of view

A little kinder, me and you

Until this unrequited love passes by

Until we find the love we want to save
