The Silence lyrics

You lift me up

And knock me down

I'm never sure just what to feel when you're around

I speak my heart

But don't know why

Cause you don't never really say what's on you mind

It's like

I'm walking on broken glass

I wanna know but I don't wanna ask

So say you love me

Or say you need me

Don't let the silence

Do the talking

Just say you want me

Or you don't need me

Don't let the silence

Do the talking

It's killing me

(love in silence)

It's killing me

(love in silence)

It's killing me

(love in silence)

You let me in

But then sometimes

Your empty eyes just make me feel so cold inside

When I'm with you

It's like rolling dice

Don't know where or how you're gonna make me cry

So say you love me

Or say you need me

Don't let the silence

Do the talking

Just say you want me

Or you don't need me

Don't let the silence

Do the talking

It's killing me

(love in silence)

It's killing me, yeah

(love in silence)

Wooooo

(love in silence)

It's like

I'm (I'm) walking on (walking on) broken glass

I wanna know but I don't wanna ask

'Cause once you say it

You can't take it back

And this the end and please just fake it fast

So say you love me

Or say you need me

Don't let the silence (ooohhhh)

Do the talking

Just say you want me (say you want me)

Or you don't need me (but you don't want me)

Don't let the silence

Do the talking

Wooooooh

(love in silence)

You lift me up

And knock me down

I'm never sure just what to feel when you're around
