When you asked me,
"Michelle, do you love me?"
I didn't know what to say
so I just laid down beside you and
I loved you in a silent way

And when you asked me to forgive you
For all your cheating days
I just laid down beside you and
Forgave you in a silent way

Silence is golden
Words are made of lead
And in the alchemy of love
Some things are better left unsaid

And when you told me you were leaving
I did not ask you to stay
But my eyes told no lies and
My tears fell in a silent way

Silence is golden
Words are made of lead
And in the alchemy of love
Some things are better left unsaid
