Lyrics

Only The Sound
Michael McGregor, Ron Boustead

(I never meant to break your heart)
(I never meant to let you down baby)

Take a look at what you left behind
And all you?ve taken with you
Did you ever think about my heart
Forsaken by you
All the words of love and tenderness
Spoken by you
All the cries and whispers in the dark...untrue

After the noise of the passion fades
As love is winding down
After the anger and calling names
If you should hear another sound
That follows you around

It?s only the sound of my heart breaking
Only the water rushing from my eyes
It?s only the words of love unspoken
A dream escaping in the night

Here?s a color photograph of us
Taken by you
Here?s a diary of the future plans
I was making with you
Here?s a gift of poetry and pearls
Given by you
All the words of our favorite song...untrue

After the noise of the passion fades
As love is winding down
After the anger and calling names
If you should hear another sound
That follows you around

It?s only the sound of my heart breaking
(I was so cold, I let you go)
Only the water rushing from my eyes
(I hurt you so, I was so wrong)
It?s only the words of love unspoken
A dream escaping in the night

Just the sound a heart can make
When someone?s been untrue
The echo of a crashing love
The sound of something blue

(I was so cold, I let you go)
(And now I know I hurt you so)
(I was so wrong, I know, I know)
