When we got together, we were drowning in the touch
You kept things to yourself and didn't say too much
I let you have your silence, 'cause I thought you needed time
But now I want to stop tryin' to read between the lines
I can't wait forever, one side needs to know
the feelings of the other before they know their own

Every night, you take your silence to bed
Every day, the same words go on never said
And tonight, we'll do it all over again
You've touched my life forever, but we'll never really start
Everytime you turn ON the light, my heart's in the dark,
heart's in the dark

You can have your secrets, a part of you that's yours
But you want me in your life, and need to know what for
Help me get around it, 'cause we're more than passing ships
I see it in your eyes, let me hear it from your lips

Every night, you take your silence to bed
Every day, the same words go on never said
And tonight, we'll do it all over again
You've touched my life forever, but we'll never really start
Everytime you turn ON the light, my heart's in the dark,
heart's in the dark

Our love is a broken rage, and I'm drowning in my doubts
It may sound like I'm angry, but I'm only reaching out
And time won't change what I'm goin' through,
only you can do that
If you want me now to stay with you, then bring the reason back

And tonight, don't take your silence to bed
Every day, don't let those words go unsaid
And tonight, we'll start it all over again
Baby touch my life forever, let me know you want to start
'Cause everytime you turn ON the light, my heart's in the dark

And tonight, don't take your silence to bed
And today, don't let those words go unsaid
And tonight, we'll start all over again
Baby touch my life forever, let me know you want to start
'Cause everytime you turn on the light, my heart's in the dark
