• The sufficient silence surfaces There’s the curse that won’t leave me alone It’s the kind that is perfect The kind you never want to leave you ‘lone And I feel blessed with this perfect curse If I could sit in silence If I could sit forever with you and not say one thing It would be sufficient And if I could listen to your heart keeping the steady cadence It would be good enough forever for me If I had two words and I couldn’t say the three I wanted I would forget to take the breath before I whispered your name Because not even breaths would be satisfactory to satisfy me If I had one word and I couldn’t say the two I wanted I would forget to think before I said what would come to mind If I could sit in silence If I could sit forever with you and not say one thing It would be sufficient And if I could listen to your heart keeping the steady cadence It would be all right for me And if I had a thousand words A thousand might not hold the same meaning as silence And when everything is quiet I can see what you’re thinking And I can see what your not If I could sit in silence It would be all right for me
