We are not together here   Though we lie entwined   To make room for the other presence   We both draw back in our minds   I have a prophecy   Threatening to spill into words   This growing certainty   Of Over      [Chorus]   There once was a time I was sure of the bond   When my hands and my tongue and my thoughts were enough   We are the same but our lives move along   And the third one between   Replaces what once was love      Freedom is being alone   I fear liberation   But something more alive than silence swallows conversation   No pleasaing drama in subtle averted eyes   The swelling fermata as the chord dies      [Chorus]      There's no denying we feel the third one we do   I'm tired of hiding and so are you      [Chorus]
