(Tempo: Slow, building in intensity) (Verse 1) The house is quiet, and the rain is falling hard I’m sitting at the piano with a broken, bleeding heart I’ve known a lot of lovers, I’ve walked through every fire But nothing could have saved me from the moment you arrived You caught me in the shadows when I was giving up And suddenly these walls of mine are never quite enough (Pre-Chorus) I try to keep my composure, I try to play it cool But when you look at me like that, I break my every rule It’s heavy on my shoulders, this love is much too wide I can’t stop the tide of everything I feel inside (Chorus) And I would give you my tomorrow, I’d give you yesterday I’ll lay the world right at your feet and watch it melt away They say that love is reckless, they say that love is blind But darling, I’d go crazy just to keep you on my mind My soul is yours to anchor, my voice is yours to keep I’ll love you through the silence, and the moments I can’t sleep (Verse 2) The years will pass right by us, the lines upon our face But I would choose you over in every single place You know the darkest corners, the secrets I don't share You hold me in the quiet, as if nobody’s there (Pre-Chorus) I try to keep my composure, I try to play it cool But when you look at me like that, I break my every rule It’s heavy on my shoulders, this love is much too wide I can’t stop the tide of everything I feel inside (Chorus) And I would give you my tomorrow, I’d give you yesterday I’ll lay the world right at your feet and watch it melt away They say that love is reckless, they say that love is blind But darling, I’d go crazy just to keep you on my mind My soul is yours to anchor, my voice is yours to keep I’ll love you through the silence, and the moments I can’t sleep (Bridge) (Vocals build, becoming heavy and emotional) My mother always told me that the highest peaks are steep But I’d climb every mountain just to lay down at your feet I have no fear of falling, I have no need to run Because in this life of shadows, you’re the only piece of sun (Chorus) (Maximum vocal power) And I would give you my tomorrow, I’d give you yesterday I’ll lay the world right at your feet and watch it melt away They say that love is reckless, they say that love is blind But darling, I’d go crazy just to keep you on my mind My soul is yours to anchor, my voice is yours to keep I’ll love you through the silence, and the moments I can’t sleep (Outro) (Music softens, backing vocals trail off) Oh, I will love you through the silence It’s always been you.
