A Silent Film

And I will always ask
And I will always wonder
And I don't need to hear the words
I don't need an answer from you

And I'll always be here
And I'll always want you to know
You are my lamplight
And you guide me where I go

All my hopes - and all my fears
Collide when you are near

I don't want it all
We all guard our mysteries with a grin
Or write them in a song
Just enough to let the light in

And I'll always be here
And I'll always want you to know
You are my lamplight
And you guide me where I go

All my hopes - and all my fears
Collide when you are near

All my hopes - and all my fears
Collide when you are near

Love is like a mast
That shivers at her mercy
These sails may be tattered and torn
But she's not sinking easy

All my hopes - and all my fears
Collide when you are near
