A change in your voice was all that I heard 

A quavering breath a pause in a word 

A shadow that suddenly covered my eyes 

A ripple of water quite smooth otherwise 



You try to go back and pave over the hole 

Where an intake of breath had punctured my soul 

Let me know let me know I need to know 



A moment of silence it now seems absurd 

That I learned so much from a pause in a word 

Every bird on the wing leads the others along 

Inside your flock of words something went wrong 



I don't think that I was expecting a lot 

I just saw that I'm passed being one couldn't fly 

Let me go let me go I need to go
