We don't have to say a word; sometimes it's better when we don't,
Apologisers aren't always heard,
Sit beside me through the storm; the cloud above will take another form.

It would be so easy for you to walk away,
All that I can tell you is: I want you to stay.

Forget that man I was before, my eyes are open to the sky,
My back lay flat against another shore,
I can't erase mistakes I've made, and I can't stand to have them bring you pain.

It would be so easy for you to walk away,
All that I can tell you is: I want you to stay.

The clouds are empty, they roll away - the sky is silent,
I am amazed that you are still sitting here, when you could have left me to drift away.

It would be so easy for you to walk away,
All that I can tell you is: I want you to stay.

We don't have to say a word; sometimes it's better when we don't,
