What I'd give to hear your voice
But I'm not given any choice
'Cause the silence speaks for itself
Well, I've been high and I've been low
And I've walked through the fires of hell
Are you comin' back, Lord? I don't know
I guess the silence speaks for itself
Well, I've been high and I've been low
And I've walked through the fires of hell
Are you comin' back, Lord? I don't know
I guess the silence speaks for itself
I guess the silence
