[INTRO] (Rhodes and bass) You don't have to say it. I can hear you. [VERSE 1] You looked at me across the room Didn't move your mouth at all But something in the way you smiled Made every wall come down You touched my hand for half a second Then you pulled it back again Funny how a little silence Can say more than words ever can You asked me if I'm staying I said, "Why would you ask?" You looked away and smiled a little We both knew the answer. [CHORUS] Say it without saying it Let your eyes tell the truth Say it without saying it I already know you You don't have to promise me You don't have to make it rhyme Just stay right here beside me And let the silence speak tonight [VERSE 2] I know the language of your shoulders When you're trying not to cry I know the little laugh you make When you're trying to hide I know when you need distance I know when you need me near And I know sometimes "I'm fine" Means "Please don't disappear." Love ain't always conversation Sometimes love is paying attention Sometimes it's remembering The things you never mentioned [CHORUS] Say it without saying it Let your eyes tell the truth Say it without saying it I already know you You don't have to promise me You don't have to make it rhyme Just stay right here beside me And let the silence speak tonight [BRIDGE] (drums drop back) Don't explain. Don't defend. Don't turn this beautiful moment Into something we have to understand. Just breathe. Come closer. That's enough. (guitar answers) Some truths sound better When nobody says them. [FINAL CHORUS] Say it without saying it Let your eyes tell the truth Say it without saying it I already know you You don't have to promise me You don't have to swear you'll stay Just put your hand inside my hand And let the night decide the rest [OUTRO] (soft backing vocals) I heard you. I heard everything. (bass continues) You didn't say a word. (Rhodes fades) Neither did I.
