There's Love, Not Silence

Sparkling in the summer sun
Laughing by my side
Lost in each other's arms
I want to remember you that way
I don't want to feel the pain
I don't want to feel this strain
I just wanted to feel free
And you just wanted to feel free
God, I want to remember you that way...
I lost you, somehow
And you...well you just lost your way
Now my beat up little heart is aching
Looking backward toward a memory
Reflecting back on a familiar face
But baby...There's simply nothing left to say
And I wonder how that could possibly be
'Cause my heart is full and my eyes are wet
And there's love, not silence, in my soul
I just don't understand how this has come to pass
How it turned out that you're there and I'm here
So close, but so far away--
God, I don't want to remember
