You lie awake at night
With blue eyes that never cry
All you remember now
Is what you feel

The truth remains
In midnight conversations
I asked for this moment
But you turned away

Sad like a lonely child
Broken the day you're born
I held the light to you
But I was so vain

And you remain
A promise unfulfilled
I ask you for more
But you push me away

And if we feel the silence
Holdin' this all inside us
Everything means more now than
Words could explain

And if we feel the silence
Leavin' this all behind us
Looking for
Something more to say

I don't know where I'm goin'
Only know where I been
But you move through my soul
Like a hurricane wind
We've been so lost for so long
I don't know how to get back again

And we're drownin' in the water
That flows under this bridge
When you're fighting the current
You forget how to live
And I wanted to reach you
But I don't know where to begin

And you remain
A promise unfulfilled until today

And if we feel the silence
Holdin' this all inside us
Everything means more now than
Words could explain

And if we feel the silence
Leavin' this all behind us
When it's gone
What will you say?

How do we hold on?
How do we hold on?
How do we hold on?
How do we hold on?
How do we hold, yeah?

You lie awake at night
With blue eyes that never cry
