That Silver Necklace
Where's the silver necklace you never wear anymore?
Does it hurt just to see that thing?
Where's the sense in holding on to the lie
That has cast such a shadow on the both of us?
I can't see myself for you, it's no use
I've been struck stupid, floundering for far too long
I've not found the strength to say nor the urge
'Cause I'm too scared you'll agree we need to talk
The reins are off, they're off for both of us
It's changed so much, but we've barely noticed it
And all I want is right in front of me now
Right here in front of me
I can't for the life of me read the signs
Read your mind, read your lips, read your diary
Everything is all at once with you, dear
I can't see where the now starts and the next begins
Coupled with your majesty, there's your heart
There's an unflinching kindness I won't forget
So smash it up and start again, there's still time
To recall everything that was good for us
The reins are off, they're off for both of us
It's changed so much, but we've barely noticed it
And all I want is right here in front of me
Right here in front of me
I've banged my head against this brick wall
So much that you can see the daylight through it
I just, I want you to see the light
I want you to see the light
The reins are off, they're off for both of us
It's changed so much, but we've barely noticed it
And all I want is right here in front of me
Right here in front of me
Does it hurt just to see that thing?
Where's the sense in holding on to the lie
That has cast such a shadow on the both of us?
I can't see myself for you, it's no use
I've been struck stupid, floundering for far too long
I've not found the strength to say nor the urge
'Cause I'm too scared you'll agree we need to talk
The reins are off, they're off for both of us
It's changed so much, but we've barely noticed it
And all I want is right in front of me now
Right here in front of me
I can't for the life of me read the signs
Read your mind, read your lips, read your diary
Everything is all at once with you, dear
I can't see where the now starts and the next begins
Coupled with your majesty, there's your heart
There's an unflinching kindness I won't forget
So smash it up and start again, there's still time
To recall everything that was good for us
The reins are off, they're off for both of us
It's changed so much, but we've barely noticed it
And all I want is right here in front of me
Right here in front of me
I've banged my head against this brick wall
So much that you can see the daylight through it
I just, I want you to see the light
I want you to see the light
The reins are off, they're off for both of us
It's changed so much, but we've barely noticed it
And all I want is right here in front of me
Right here in front of me
