Silent Tears

She pushed the dial, she made the call

She’s been holding out for much too long

She cried “It’s over”

And for me I slowly fall

 

Falling down, down to the ground

This room is loud with silence

Today is the day that I learn to forget you

Still I slowly fall

 

Silent tears of a broken heart

A lover lost to a brand new start

I’m silently crying, I’m silently crying

Silent tears of a broken heart

A lover lost to a brand new start

I’m silently crying, for you

 

“Hello” you say, how have I been?

I force my smile say I’m doing fine

Oh and by the way “I had to let you go”

Still I slowly fall

 

A years gone by since I saw your eyes,

To feel your touch, to see your smile

And knowing that our bodies will never meet again

Regret the words that set you free

 

Silent tears of a broken heart

A lover lost to a brand new start

I’m silently crying, I’m silently crying

Silent tears of a broken heart

A lover lost to a brand new start

I’m silently crying, I’m silently crying

 

The only way to keep you, was as a friend

To let you go, to set you free

I hide the hurt, I learn to smile

Still I slowly fall
