I set the scene to tell the tale

Who could have known his face would pale?

Life is never what you want

Unless you plan it from the start

Now, wouldn't that be smart?



Don't make a sound, as I cry out

Is that what love is all about?

Don't make a sound, as I call out

I know that's not what's love about

Don't make a sound

Don't make a sound

Don't make a sound ...



So this is how it always goes

And what is real, we'll never know

Trust me now I know firsthand

My fiction leads my real life and

This isn't what I planned



Don't make a sound as I cry out

Is that what love is all about?

Don't make a sound as I call out

I know that's not what's love about

Don't make a sound

Don't make a sound

Don't make a sound ...



My melody's my malady, my hand inscribes my grave

I told you once I'll tell you twice there's nothing left to say

I don't know what I've been told, my memory escaped

But don't try to refresh my mind, I've reasoned it that way

Just shhhhh......



Don't make a sound as I cry out

Is that what love is all about?

Don't make a sound as I call out

I know that's not what's love about

Don't make a sound

Don't make a sound

Don't make a sound ...
