|
I loved you once in silence |
|
And misery was all I knew |
|
Trying so to keep my love from showing |
|
All the while not knowing you loved me too |
|
Yes, loved me in lonesome silence |
|
Your heart filled with dark despair |
|
Thinking love would flame in you forever |
|
And I'd never, never know the flame was there |
|
Then one day we cast away our secret longing |
|
The raging tide we held inside would hold no more |
|
The silence at last was broken |
|
We flung wide our prison door |
|
Every joyous word of love was spoken |
|
And now there's twice as much grief |
|
Twice the strain for us |
|
Twice the despair |
|
Twice the pain for us |
|
As we had known before |
|
The silence at last was broken |
|
We flung wide our prison door |
|
Every joyous word of love was spoken |
|
And after all had been said here we are, my love |
|
Silent once more and not far, my love |
|
From where we were before |
