Lyric

So many words are spoken – they’re just empty air

When love is in the heart, all we need is quiet there

I try to reach you through the words I say

But I can’t see the wall they build in our way

I tell you words of love again and again

As if I’m trying to prove, not love, but then

To you, to myself, that what I feel is true

But love will find us when I stop speaking too

In words I build not love, but just myself

I need to drop my armor, love is not a battle held

It’s hard to see, I admire myself too much

I need to stay silent and live for your touch

Can I just hold you, just hold you near?

I want to stay silent and hold you here

Replace all empty words with what I do

Can I just hold you, just hold you near?

I’ll look into your eyes and pull you close

I won’t say “I love you” – my actions will show

Where a thousand words fall, only fear remains

Not love, not love…
