[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus 1]
And if we feel the silence
Holding this all inside us
Everything means more now than
Words could explain
[Chorus 2]
And if we feel the silence
Leaving this all behind us
Looking for
Something more to say
[Verse 3]
I don't know where I'm going
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
[Verse 4]
And we're drowning 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
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 3]
And if we feel the silence
Leavin' this all behind us
When it's gone
What will you say?
[Bridge]
How do we hold on? [x4]
How do we hold, yeah?
[Outro]
You lie awake at night
With blue eyes that never cry
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus 1]
And if we feel the silence
Holding this all inside us
Everything means more now than
Words could explain
[Chorus 2]
And if we feel the silence
Leaving this all behind us
Looking for
Something more to say
[Verse 3]
I don't know where I'm going
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
[Verse 4]
And we're drowning 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
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 3]
And if we feel the silence
Leavin' this all behind us
When it's gone
What will you say?
[Bridge]
How do we hold on? [x4]
How do we hold, yeah?
[Outro]
You lie awake at night
