As high as the moon, so high were my spirits
When you sang out my name
And comin' from you it was enough just to hear it
Oh, it rang like the bells did todayBut even the sturdiest ground
Can shift and can tremble and let us fall downKindly unspoken, you showed your emotion
And silence speaks louder than words, oh
It's lucky I'm clever, if I didn't know better
I'd believe only that which I'd heardIn the days of my folly I follow your lead
I do what Simon said to do, yeah
But I won't, won't let melancholy play me for a fool
Oh no, I'm on my way somewhere new, yeahAnd as far as your lack of somethin' to say
Well, just to tell me goodbye there was no better wayKindly unspoken, you showed your emotion
And silence speaks louder than words, oh
It's lucky I'm clever, if I didn't know better
I'd believe only that which I'd heard, yeahOh baby, don't keep me up till the dawn, no
With those old words that keep leading me on
Baby, well, now I know much better
Than to wait for an answer from you, ohKindly unspoken, you showed your emotion
And silence speaks louder than words, oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Lucky I'm clever, if I didn't know better
I'd believe only that which I'd heard
