lyrics

Words We Never Say (Lyrics by Steve Montgomery)

You know and I know the reason
Though a glance or a smile may be proof
It’s a simple, unspoken concession
But you know and I know the truth

There’s no promise, just captured emotions
We’re together where we never can stay
There’s a fine line and we’ll never cross it
So we both know what we’ll never say

In a moment of weakness
We affirm an affection
That we cling to ‘til we give it away
Not a lone shattered heart
But a frail work of art
And there’s one word that we’ll never say

Maybe passive, but never indifferent
To fated moments of crosses we bear
On a road paved with honest intentions
There’s a gamble to the guilt that we share

So we might reminisce about daydreams
Or the fortunes and plans gone astray
But we’ll never ever mention tomorrow
‘Cause we’ll reap what we’re sowing today

But in moments of weakness
We’ve affirmed an affection
And we’ll hold on ‘til we give it away
A lone shattered heart
Is a frail work of art
So there’s one word that we’ll never say
