Don't you know these words   Don't you know this tune   Am I playing it wrong?   Don't you recognise   Don't you understand   To whom it belongs?      You're the words that I speak   You're the silence in between   You're the verse that I sing   You're the essence of all things   In my song      If I write it down   If I sing once more   Maybe you'll understand   If it's on TV   If it's on the air   Then maybe you'll see      You can't change the events   You just can't fade out the strings   You're the verse that I sing   You're the essence of all things   In my song
