Loss Of Words

You tell me that you love me But it almost sounds absurd I’m laying next to you And yet I cannot say a word I try to get them out But they’re sticking to me tongue It’s hard to sing a song When you forget how it’s sung You hold on while I hold still But still my mouth is dry I try to find some strength inside The minutes seem to fly Want, need, yearn, crave All that I desire… you Wish, long, pine, thirst What does it aspire to I’m trying to speak my mind But I cannot seem to say The words I know you want to hear The words to make you stay As you leave I almost scream I whisper, nothing more Silence is the only sound Until you slam the door In this room the quiet hurts I’m lost without you here You’ve been gone for minutes But to me it feels like years Want, need, yearn, crave All that I desire… you Wish, long, pine, thirst What does it aspire to I wish I could have found the words A way to still your fears I couldn’t even lift my hand To wipe away your tears I can’t take back All that I put you through I can’t help it I’m at a loss of words with you
