I'd stay here for hours if i thought that you would speak
I'd sit in the silence if i thought you'd talk to me
But sometimes i'm afraid that you won't say a thing
So i fill the quiet void with these six strings

It's been a long long time since i've been this still
Maybe if i could learn to hear your voice, then i would know your will
Even now, it breaks my heart to tell you how i feel
Cause i love you, i just need some time to heal

So won't you heal, heal these wounds; they're deeper than i knew
Deeper than i ever knew.
Won't you heal, heal these wounds; these band-aids just won't due
I need a touch from you

I feel like a mess here, with wet cheeks and swollen eyes
I guess it's comforting to know that i still have tears to cry
Even if you won't tell me all the reasons why
I know you hear me, so please don't pass me by!
