Lyrics
WITHOUT A WORD TO SAY
You never ever shouted so loud
As the cry that went unspoken
That deafening sound
Leaves so much unanswered
How could I not know you
You never let me in ? no you never let me in
I?m standing here before you
And still you never felt so far away
Don?t leave me without words to say
You never ever pushed me so hard
As the force with which you?re leaving
My home is crushed to the ground
There are no walls left standing
My battle never fought
You were already gone ? you were already gone
So promises are broken
Cause you?re the one that can?t be satisfied
I?ve got to let it go soon
But I can?t seem to move ahead
Pretending life?s the same
I?m finally laughing then I realize
It?s yesterday again
You never ever cut me so deep
As the knife you used to sever
Every tie that we bound
And all our time
You threw it all away - you threw it all away
So promises are broken
Cause you?re the one who can?t be satisfied
Your words are still unspoken
Is it cause your heart just can?t decide?
I know you don?t wanna hear
But I?ve got to make it clear
I?m the woman that you made
I?m the woman you betrayed
I?m the woman you just left without a word to say
