The words have already said too much
And the world has thought itself away
I don't need to know what comes tomorrow
I just want to be here with you today

Don't tell me what has yet to happen
Don't remind me what is gone
Let the time fall softly over us
Like the night when all the noise is gone

Let the present breathe
You don't have to explain
Some things only come alive
When we stop searching for their name

Don't tell me where this road is leading
Don't tell me how long it will last
There is a truth between us
That doesn't need a name to last

And in the endless waters of time
Where all my ghosts are drifting away
I let everything that weighs me down
Sink beneath the surface today

Let the present breathe
You don't have to explain
Some things only come alive
When we stop searching for their name

Maybe there is no tomorrow
Maybe yesterday is gone
Maybe all we ever needed
Was this moment to hold on

So let the silence speak between us
Let the world disappear outside
I don't need another answer
I only need you by my side

Stay by my side
Stay by my side

Let the present breathe
You don't have to explain
Some things only come alive
When we stop searching for their name

If tomorrow comes, let it come alone
If yesterday returns, I'll let it pass
Tonight I only need the silence
Of knowing that you're here at last

I stay by your side
No before, no after
I stay by your side
There is only now between us
