IF ONLY YOU KNEW

IF ONLY YOU KNEW

If only you knew what words to say
Thinking none at all might be best
Yet feelings need to have their day

If only you knew where love resided
Not in the brain, but an aching heart
Restoring the link that silence divided

If only you knew when it was right
To apologise and really mean it too
Yet I guess you’ll never see the light

If only you knew why I ended it all
Leaving a mere fragment of memory
Of those two voices behind the wall
