When You Say Nothing At All Alison Krauss it's amazing how you can speak right to my heart without saying a word you can light up the dark try as i may i can never explain what i hear when you don't say a thing the smile on your face lets me know that you need me there's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me the tough of your hand says you'll catch me wherever i fall you say it best when you say nothing at all all day long i can hear people talking out loud but when you hold me near you drown the crowd try as they may they can never define what's been said between your heart and mine the smile on your face lets me know that you need me there's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me the tough of your hand says you'll catch me wherever i fall you say it best
