i can hear my heart break

i'm surrounded by silence; tormented by dreams. tortured by sweet words that you didn't mean. it's so still and this. this silence that i can't hardly take

for i can hear

i can hear my heart break. now these arms are mighty lonesome; guess they're missing you

and i have to admit it. honey

i miss you too. i sit here in this silence

half asleep

half awake. and i can hear

i can hear my heart break. empty days without number

lonely nights i can't bear. that ol' world's gone right on by me. who's to know? who's to care?

i keep listenin' for your footsteps

little sounds you used to make

and i can hear

i can hear my heart break. my heart break.
