When You Say Nothing At All

It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as i may i could never explain
What i hear when you don't say a thing

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever i fall
Now you say it best when you say nothing at all

All day long i can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
old mr.webster could never define
whats being said between your heart and mine


The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever i fall
Now you say it best when you say nothing at all


The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever i fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
