One look, dark room

Meant just for you

Time moved too fast

You play it back

Buttons on a coat

Lighthearted joke

No proof, not much

But you saw enough

Small talk, he drives

Coffee at midnight

The light reflects

The chain on your neck

He says, "Look up."

And your shoulders brush

No proof, one touch

But you felt enough



You can hear it in the silence, silence

You can feel it on the way home, way home

You could see it with the lights out, lights out

You are in love, true love

You are in love



Morning, his place

Burnt toast, Sunday

You keep his shirt

He keeps his word

And for once you let go

Of your fears and your ghosts

One step, not much

But it said enough

You kiss on sidewalks

You fight then you talk

One night he wakes

Strange look on his face

Pauses, then says.

"You're my best friend."

And you knew what it was

He is in love



You can hear it in the silence, silence

You can feel it on the way home, way home

You could see it with the lights out, lights out

You are in love, true love



And so it goes

You two are dancing in a snow globe 'round and 'round

And he keeps a picture of you in his office downtown

And you understand now why they lost their minds and fought the wars

And why I spent my whole life trying to put it into words



'Cause you can hear it in the silence

You can feel it on the way home

You could see it with the lights out

You are in love, true love

You're in love



You can hear it in the silence, silence

You can feel it on the way home, way home

You could see it with the lights out, lights out

You are in love, true love

You're in love



You can hear it in the silence, silence

You can feel it on the way home, way home

You can see it with the lights out, lights out

You are in love, true love

You're in love
