Silent hours

All these silent hours i wait for you
don't know what to do
don't know where to go
how am i supposed to know?

the true feelings if you'll never say
keeping everything in throughout the day
but now it's time
to make love mine

I've been waiting all my life
cutting away my sorrows with a knife
but it's got me nowhere
if only i could go there

to the place where everything is quiet
not like the real world; such a riot
I'll sit here waiting and hoping
pain coursing through my veins; I'm coping

with the ice all around me
this is how it's supposed to be
all these silent hours waiting for you
the sky is looking a little less blue

because you never talk
it's always me that has to walk
just a little closer to you
if only you will too

then we'd be together all these silent hours
while anticipation towers
wanting it all to happen
but the demons are still laughin'

they know it will never be
that i will never see
you in my reach
to teach

the power that love can bring
and I'll forever more sing
that heart wrenching song of love and hate
to open up that gate

in your heart now let me in
it's not a sin
to love someone that's right in front of you
someone that will forever love you
it's nothing new

it's been there since the beginning of time
acting it out like a black and white mime
I don't know what else to do
all these silent hours waiting for you
