Don't Ruin the Silence
You are the one
I've been hoping for all my life,
you are the one
I'd adore to be my wife,
In the silence
I can hear your heartbeat,
and, I can hear the echoes, but not by choice;
when I can't hear your heartbeat,
don't ruin the silence with your voice.
I am the one
you said you'd cling to, with all your might;
I am the one
with whom you hold, throughout the night;
I can hear your voice
so loud, in the echoes, through the tears,
when I can't hear your heartbeat
don't ruin the silence, with your ears.
