But It Can't Speak

You say you love

But love can't speak

And that it's wide

But is it deep?

 

Can you see

How fars its reach?

Love is blind

For it can't see

 

You say you love me

But it can't speak

 

I thought I felt it

But love can't feel

Was it a ghost?

Or something real

 

Sometimes I get caught up in thought

And then those words begin to haunt

Do you believe Love's reached it's peak?

I'd ask our love

But it can't speak

 

How do you gauge

This love we've amassed

It doesn't age

It will outlast

 

For love was here before we found

But by our love I will be bound

For the love we had I will always seek

I'd ask it to stay

But it can't speak
