in a book in a box in the closet
in a line in a song i once heard
in a moment on a front porch
late one june
in a breath inside a whisper
beneath the moon
there it was at the tip of my fingers
there it was on the tip of my tongue
there you were and i had never been that far
there it was the whole world
wrapped inside my arms
and i let it all slip away --
chorus:
what do i do now that you're gone
no back up plan,no second chance
and no one else to blame
all i can hear in the silence
that remains
are the words i couldn't say
there's a rain that'll
never stop falling
there's a wall that i've tried to
take down
what i should've said
just wouldn't pass my lips
so i held back and now we've
come to this
and it's too late now --
repeat chorus
what do i do now that you're gone
no back up plan,no second chance
and no one else to blame
all i can hear in the silence
that remains
are the words i couldn't say
are the words i couldn't say
i should have found a way
to tell you how i felt
now the only one i'm tellin' is myself
repeat chorus
what do i do now that you're gone
no back up plan,no second chance
and no one else to blame
all i can hear in the silence
that remains
are the words i couldn't say
what do i do,what do i say
and no one else to blame
all i can hear in the silence that
remains
are the words i couldn't say
