Susheela Raman - What Silence Said lyrics

Does the unknown bird enter and leave the cage ? Paris café Our last rendezvous Rain swept, backward scripted windows Our shrunken heads reading signs and lips One last dance, broken steps Before your eclipse... Was there thunder in your ears? Mine were full of sand, not hearing What your silence said And if I turn around, your mouth open, no sound Your eyes screaming, retreating into blackness... A day too late, your news found me at home Mind bubbling up Angry water refusing a stone And then revenge, I felt life surge in my veins A hunger you would never taste again... Did you lose your faith in love? Did you lose faith in human feeling? Silence... Did you lose your trust in truth? Did your heart have no way to healing Like I lost you? You left your lovers close behind But twisted up in time, you crossed the line It's all we have, this thin twine Then nothing... Just the emptiness you carved Your spine a lonely blade In space... To the end a dancer... Beautiful face begins to fade Thank you for being my friend... Beautiful face begins to fade...
