I'd never heard such a deafening silence
Or seen the sky so grey
It never was as hard to pass a doorstep
As it was today
You said you would
And I just thought that you were full of it
But today fate proved you right
I'd like to think
That somewhere, somehow you are cool with it
You'd be the only one tonight
The words had never been as hard to get out
Well, what was there to say?
The laughter never had been as uneasy
As it was today
You said you would
And I just thought that you were full of it
But today fate proved you right
I'd like to think
That somewhere, somehow you are cool with it
You'd be the only one tonight
