Without a Word

Trying to back off
Trying to lay low
Giving you time to read the stars

Trying to wait for
Something you don't know
To show you where you are

Where you are
Where you are
Where you are

It's been so long now
I know I should forget you
Yeah, I ought to let it lie

But I'm bound to wonder
All about you
No matter how I try

There you are
There you are
There you are

First a knock and then a crash
And a staggering conviction
That I might not catch up
Like all the colors running down a portrait
And now it looks nothing like the one I fell in love with

I thought I could write you right out of my story
When all the clear lines blurred
I still want you to show up
Yeah, I hope you'll just roll through
After all these years without a word

Without a word
Without a word
Without a word
