Eclipse

There's an eclipse in your eye

where I used to shine

Every secret untold

is a planet aligned

Don't need prophets or preachers

to make sense of the signs

When the buried and hidden can be seen by the blind



You're right

Some words are just unspoken

So right

Then it all just falls apart



The day I break your heart



I caught my reflection

in the corner of your eye

You said "Don't even ask the question,

and I won't tell the lie"

Where there's no accusation

there's no need for denial

And if you hadn't heard that whisper

there'd be no tear to wipe from your eye



You're right

Some words are best unspoken

So right

Then it all just falls apart



The day I break your heart



Never took no advice

Not the foolish, not the wise

All the truth that I needed

was right there in your smile

Every prophecy written of what's going to be

All beginnings and endings, they're about you and me



You're right

Some words are best unspoken

So right

Until it all just falls apart

You're right

Some words are best unspoken

So right

Then it all just falls apart



The day I break your heart
