Takes
Lyrics
[verse]
I can see it coming in the way you turn away
The words you used to whisper have got nothing left to say
We used to laugh for hours over nothing much at all
Now the silence in this house is climbing up the wall
[verse]
I remember when we started, everything was new
Every simple moment felt like something we could do forever
Now I watch you gathering the pieces of us both
Wondering how something good could lose its oath
[chorus]
Don't say it, don't explain, just let me have tonight
Don't tell me it's over, let me hold on to the light
I know it's ending, I can feel it in the air
Just don't speak, just let me pretend you're still there
[verse]
I know the reasons, I've heard them all before
Still it doesn't make it hurt a little less, or more
Maybe someday I'll be fine with how it goes
But right now I just need the quiet, not the blows
[chorus]
Don't say it, don't explain, just let me have tonight
Don't tell me it's over, let me hold on to the light
I know it's ending, I can feel it in the air
Just don't speak, just let me pretend you're still there
[bridge]
Hush now, hush now
Don't tell me how the story ends
Hush now, hush now
Let the quiet be my only friend
[chorus]
Don't say it, don't explain, just let me have tonight
Don't tell me it's over, let me hold on to the light
I know it's ending, I can feel it in the air
Just don't speak, just let me pretend you're still there
