Softly as the night upon an unsuspecting day
Gently as the wind within a dandelion May
I need no reassurance of your love, dear
say nothing at all and I will hear.

Like the beauty of a sunset, though it's never a surprise
you can take it all for granted but the wonder never dies.
Then suddenly you'll come around and realize its glow
say nothing at all and I will know.

It would seem a shame to break the magic cast upon our love
by a million faded promises--a smile is just enough..

Already time is crowded with the words that mean no more
than yes, I truly love you but we've heard that all before.
The moment that we're sure is ours is too short to define
say nothing at all for you are mine.
