Say It With Your Eyes - Arden Coley
Train glass trembles
With the city's soft blur
Your reflection in mine
Breathing to each other
You sit by the window
With hands in your sleeves
Like you've got a dream
You don't want to leave
We're strangers with history
Tucked under skin
To quiet old chapters
That never grew thin
Say it with your eyes
If your lips can't decide
Let your silence be honest
Let it open wide
Say it with your eyes
Let the truth be gentle
Like morning on water
Like light through a stencil
I watched you forgive me
Without making sound
Like spring finding roots
In a frost-bitten ground
And I knew in that glance
And that so steady flame
You still knew my heart
Even after the shame
Say it with your eyes
If your lips can't decide
Let your silence be honest
Let it open wide
Say it with your eyes
Let the truth be gentle
Like morning on water
Like light through a stencil
The doors slide open
The platform is cold
You stand like a story
That's trying to unfold
I don't reach to hold you
I don't chase your coat
I just meet your gaze
And we both learn to float
Say it with your eyes
If your lips can't decide
Let your silence be honest
Let it open wide
Say it with your eyes
Let the truth be gentle
Like morning on water
Like light through a stencil
And when you walk off
I can still see clear
You said it with your eyes
And it stayed with me here
