and slowly crossed the line
She's tried so hard to make it strong
And she ain't had much success
Now once again he has to face her
With his weakness on his brain
As he pushed the key inside the lock
He felt it sweeping through him
That he didn't see her call
Inside he cried her name aloud
He could hear those times of crying
She would softly beg and plead
Then he heard his tongue try
To defend the fool she sees
that'll bring the final straw
Sometimes silence says it all
he found himself staring at their bed
In place of any goodbye note,
she had left her rings instead
to lay right down and bawl
Well, it was over, and he knew it
Lord, the silence said it all
He could hear those times of crying
She would softly beg and plead
Then he heard his tongue a -trying
To defend the fool she sees
that'll bring the final straw
Sometimes silence says it all
Oh, sometimes silence says it all
