Break the Silence
Myles Alannah Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can you hear me cry across the great divide?
Do you hear me calling, or are my tears just falling?
In an ocean of regret, words left unsaid
I wish I could hold you; I wish that I could have that chance again
But when I close my eyes
I can see you there, reaching out your hand to me
And I follow you through every dream
How I miss you
I miss you
I miss you
I miss you

Somehow over mountains
Somehow over seas
Love will break the silence
And bring you back to me
Love will bring you back to me
Somehow; break the silence

Give me wings to fly across the great divide
I'm trying to see tomorrow; I wish that I could borrow
Just a glimpse of what will be just to hear you speak
These nights are getting longer; my love for you is growing stronger
As long as there is hope
I will send a prayer as far as the winds will blow
And I hope, somehow, you will know
How I miss you
I miss you
I miss you
I miss you

Somehow over mountains
Somehow over seas
Love will break the silence
And bring you back to me
Somehow there's an answer
Somehow I believe
Love will break, love will break the silence
Love will break, love will break the silence
Love will break, love will break the silence
Love will break, love will break the silence

And when I close my eyes
I can see you reaching out your hand to me
And I hope somehow you will see
How I miss you
I miss you
I miss you
I miss you

Somehow over mountains
Somehow over seas
Love will break the silence
And bring you back to me
Somehow there's an answer
Somehow I believe




Love will break the silence
Love will bring you back to me
