Silent Conversations

After words have been drained out, all that is left are silent conversations

As the music fades away
Our waltz comes to an end
I hold you close one last time
Before we part our ways as friends
Should we deny what's happened?
And turn a blind eye to our needs
We rationalize our feelings
And allow the mind to lead
To our silent conversations
Emotions running wild
That loom over our lives

We were caught up in our battles
And in trying to keep our heads
We dealt with it unsubtly
Spoke words we now regret
And it’s brought us where we stand now
In uncertain convictions
That wash over the castles
We built with our own hands
And you fight with the turbulence
I sail over high tides
The distance spreading wide

And in this bitter winter
We long to rest in those arms
Where we once felt at home
Should we take another chance?
We flee to our defenses
Though we don’t know if it’s right
But when left unto ourselves
We cry into the night
And you fight with the turbulence
I sail over high tides
The distance spreading wide
And the silent conversations
Emotions running wild
That loom over our lives…
