Lyrics Unspoken - John Oates

Feel the walls come closing in
Guess we've done it once again
We stand where silence rules
And nobody ever wins
There's a ringing in my ear
From the words that I never hear
Why do we go down this road
When baby we both know...

When it goes unspoken... hearts get broken
Our whole world starts shaking
When communication breaks down
In the name of foolish pride
We risk the love inside
These hearts and dreams get broken
When the words I love you go unspoken

It wouldn't take too much
A whisper then a touch
That turn to joyful tears
When we listen then we can hear
The voice inside our heart
Says we must never part
No way this love can end
We'll never... ever... let the silence win again

When it goes unspoken... hearts get broken
Our whole world starts shaking
When communication breaks down
In the name of foolish pride
We risk the love inside
These hearts and dreams get broken
When the words I love you go unspoken
