The Sound

I couldn’t speak at all now every word means nothing
Nothing I say explains the sound of my longing heart
If I had my way I wouldn’t have to say it
I find you in the dark

What’s the sound that a longing heart makes?
What’s the sound when it breaks?
What’s the sound that a longing heart makes?
Oh oh oh oh
That’s the sound
La, da, da, da
La, da, da, da

I couldn’t think at all
Yet all my thoughts consume me
They keep beating at me oh that’s the hardest part
And if I let it out
It might be terrifying
You need the night to see the stars

What’s the sound that a longing heart makes?
What’s the sound when it breaks?
What’s the sound that a longing heart makes

That’s the sound
Can you hear it? Or is it too low?
Groaning like a ship
Twisting in a storm
Like an iceberg ripping through the hull of boat
Boat oh, no
Can you hear me now?
Or am I too loud?
Don’t tie me down
I can finally let it out
Oh, no

Now it’s starting to show
And I just can’t escape it anymore
What’s the sound that a longing heart makes?
What’s the sound when it breaks?
What’s the sound that a longing heart makes?
Oh, that’s the sound
That’s the sound
That’s the sound
What’s the sound that a longing heart makes?
What’s the sound when it breaks?
What’s the sound that a longing heart makes?
Oh, that’s the sound
Oh, that’s the sound
Oh, that’s the sound
