The Silence Between Us

There were trails of fallen trees
Deciduous and weeding marsh
The lowland birds and crickets roared
The final sound of fallAlong the banks of the river
We approached the footbridge
Entering the wilderness
Following my footstepThe silence between us is the time
When I can't hear the thoughts
That's on your mind, yeahBeyond the panic and worried that
Seems to consume most every thought
There lies a calm and steady hand
That someday you might seePerhaps it isn't what you wanted
Or even what you're looking for
But once you see the symmetry
Once you see the you and meThe silence between us is the time
When I can't hear the thoughts
That's on your mind, yeahWhile others were so nervous
The words will disappear
What thoughts are on your mind, yeahYou park the car outside the Holiday Inn
We cross the highway single file
And you were walking in a hurry
And there was me without water with a smile, yeahThe silence between us is the time
When I can't hear the thoughts
That's on your mind, yeahWhile others were so nervous
The words will disappear
What thoughts are on your mind, yeahOn your mind, yeah
On your mind, yeah
On your mind, yeah
