Words in the Night

The night is resting on the water
The moon is hiding in the clouds
I can hear the distant thunder
But somehow everything is quiet now

There are words I never told you
Not because I didn't know
Sometimes love is found in silence
In the things we never show

And when the world becomes too loud
I close my eyes and hear you breathe
Somewhere underneath the noise
There's a place where we are free

These are the words in the dark
The ones we carry in our hearts
No one can see them, no one knows
But somehow you can hear them close

And if the night should hide the stars
I'll find you wherever you are
I don't need a light to know
Which way my heart is meant to go

The old trees move against the moonlight
Their shadows falling on the ground
Every branch becomes a memory
Every silence becomes a sound

I remember all the mornings
I remember every road
And I know that life keeps changing
But some things never let us go

If tomorrow brings a question
If the answer takes its time
We don't have to fear the silence
We can leave the words behind

These are the words in the dark
The ones we carry in our hearts
No one can see them, no one knows
But somehow you can hear them close

And if the night should hide the stars
I'll find you wherever you are
I don't need a light to know
Which way my heart is meant to go

Sometimes we spend our lives
trying to explain what cannot be explained.

A look.
A touch.
A silence that says more than a thousand words.

And maybe that's what love really is.

Not having all the answers.
Not knowing what tomorrow brings.

Just knowing
that when the darkness comes,
there is someone beside you.

So let the night fall around us
Let the distant thunder roll
There are things beyond our knowing
But we know where we belong

And when the morning finds us
We'll still be standing here
With the words we never needed
And the things we hold most dear

These are the words in the dark
The ones we carry in our hearts
No one can see them, no one knows
But somehow you can hear them close

And if the night should hide the stars
I'll find you wherever you are
I don't need a light to know
Which way my heart is meant to go

These are the words in the dark
Still burning like a quiet spark
And when the morning comes again
I'll find you there, my love, my friend

No need for words
No need for light

I know you're there
I know you're mine
