If I go into the silence with you,<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

what will happen to all we knew?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You were my favorite song.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Not to hear it would be all wrong.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Is there anything there to see?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Is it the right place for you and me?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

If we go, there\u2019s no coming back.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I am not sure that\u2019s where it is at?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

True, others have done the same.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

No one knows of what became?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I have considered long and hard.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

We could be playing the wrong card.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Have you considered other options?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

None that you say would top them?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Things are not the best they could be.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I guess it is a way to be free.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

From frying pan into the fire.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Talk about coming down to the wire.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

It does take a lot of faith.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Possibly faith misplaced.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

A one way trip with no way back.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I am not sure I am ready for that.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You say you can\u2019t go without me.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Time to find other ways to be free.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
