Silent Ways

Michelle Shocked

"Michelle, do you love me?"

I didn't know what to say

so I just laid down beside you and

I loved you in a silent way



And when you asked me to forgive you

For all your cheating days

I just laid down beside you and

Forgave you in a silent way



Silence is golden

Words are made of lead

And in the alchemy of love

Some things are better left unsaid



And when you told me you were leaving

I did not ask you to stay

But my eyes told no lies and

My tears fell in a silent way



Silence is golden

Words are made of lead

And in the alchemy of love

Some things are better left unsaid
