Oh there were times
He called your name
He called it time and time again
Sometimes awake
Or in a dream
Sometimes he whispered
Sometimes he screamed
Sometimes silence
Somehow
Seems to sound much louder
Does knowing you can make him feel this way
Keep you feeling prouder
And though his friends say he should let go
I don't think he'll want to know
For there are things you help him hear
That keep him warm as you're not near
Sometimes silence
Somehow
Seems to feel much colder
Does knowing he can feel something so strong
Keep him feeling nobler
He hopes this is the last song
That he's going to write for you
And these are the last words
He'll let himself say
He hopes this is the last time
That he stays up all night for you
If this is the last song
He hopes you hear it someday
He hopes this is the last song
That he's going to write for you
And these are the last words
About you he will say
He hopes this is the last time
That he stays up all night for you
If this is the last song
Still he hopes you hear it someday
Sometimes silence
Somehow
Seems to sound much louder
