In a book, in a box, in the closet In a line, in a song I once heard In a moment on a front porch late one June In a breath inside a whisper beneath the moon
There it was at the tip of my fingers There it was on the tip of my tongue There you were and I had never been that far There it was the whole world wrapped inside my arms
And I let it all slip away
What do I do now that you're gone No back up plan, no second chance And no one else to blame All I can hear in the silence that remains Are the words I couldn't say
There's a rain that will never stop fallin' There a wall that I tried to take down What I should have said just wouldn't pass my lips So I held back and now we've come to this
And it's too late now
What do I do now that you're gone No back up plan, no second chance And no one else to blame All I can hear in the silence that remains Are the words I couldn't say
What do I do now that you're gone No back up plan, no second chance And no one else to blame All I can hear in the silence that remains Are the words I couldn't say
