about

This one is a song I wrote years ago and spent years finishing it. For me songwriting is like raising children. A big event at the start and a long slow tending to help it grow up. This one is about the dance of intimacy. A lot doesn't have to be said.

lyrics

Some Things Don’t Need Saying
Gary Furr (guitar capo 2 play in C)

Some things don’t need saying
I can see it on your face
A knowing glance across the room
We connect without a trace

Chorus
Some joys don’t need shouting
Some smiles are never on display
Some messages delivered without a big parade

You’re sitting in the nighttime
You tell me that you just can’t sleep
But troubled thoughts are your companions
You pray the Lord your soul to keep

Some prayers don’t need prayin’
Your face just says it all in tears
You call to heaven with a sigh
But I’m just full of fear.
Bridge:
It’s always been our way
To let each other be
But something you’re ashamed to say
Is terrifying me

I’m wondering in the silence
About your heart tonight
You’re looking down while I’m talkin’
your lips are drawn and tight.

Some things don’t need sayin’
But then again, some things do.
This secret is a prison
Keeping me from you.

Maybe I can’t take it,
But then again, maybe I can
Come over here and tell me,
We’ll (Let’s) see what love can stand
