    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
    Let's me know that you need me,
    There's a truth in your eyes
    Saying you'll never leave me
    The touch of your hands
    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
    What's 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
    Saying you'll never leave me
    the touch of your hands
    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
    Saying you'll never leave me
    the touch of your hands
    says you'll catch me if ever i fall
    Now you say it best...
