As high as the moon, so high were my spirits   When you sang out my name   And comin' from you it was enough just to hear it   Oh, it rang like the bells did today      But even the sturdiest ground   Can shift and can tremble and let us fall down      Kindly unspoken, you showed your emotion   And silence speaks louder than words, oh   It's lucky I'm clever, if I didn't know better   I'd believe only that which I'd heard      In the days of my folly I follow your lead   I do what Simon said to do, yeah   But I won't, won't let melancholy play me for a fool   Oh no, I'm on my way somewhere new, yeah      And as far as your lack of somethin' to say   Well, just to tell me goodbye there was no better way      Kindly unspoken, you showed your emotion   And silence speaks louder than words, oh   It's lucky I'm clever, if I didn't know better   I'd believe only that which I'd heard, yeah      Oh baby, don't keep me up till the dawn, no   With those old words that keep leading me on   Baby, well, now I know much better   Than to wait for an answer from you, oh      Kindly unspoken, you showed your emotion   And silence speaks louder than words, oh yeah, yeah, yeah   Lucky I'm clever, if I didn't know better   I'd believe only that which I'd heard
