Silence from Glace by Desmond White

Silence creeps up on me, late in the springtime
Songs they look up at me, all words that don't rhyme
And I'm afraid I'm not the one for you
I'm afraid of who I'd be for you
Would I live for you

See all the cherry trees, see the beginning
Out of the winter's dark, bright light is spinning
And after last time, boy you think I'd know.
After all the years of moving slow.

Let me try my luck once more with you
I know we said we're through
And if I try to run well hold on til
you see a sun brand new

All of my memories, time lapsed and fading
And each frame I watch myself, still hesitating
If you ask me will I change at all
All the lies I'll tell to break your fall

Let me find that other you
That doesn't bend or break in two
And if you find some other one
Well take that hand and run, just run….

Now I see that other you
that didn't bend or break in two
now you've found that silent one
who holds you when the day is done

Maybe after 10 more years
I'll face your children, meet my fears
And if I'm still alone then scream
Don't wait too long in both my ears
