lyrics

I can't see everything
But I know what you mean to me
It's merely our destiny
There's no one else around
I still have fantasies
Of having you next to me
There is no vacancy in
How I feel right now

Words etched in stone
Clearly not my own
Do you believe me now?

We all have a story we can't tell
I still don't know mine that well
Tonight I'll stay in this hotel
Tomorrow I'll live for myself

I can't give you everything
But I know what my life is worth
I won't take just anything
This love will not allow
Revealing the best in me
There's no need for questioning
So don't keep on thinking things
That you can't say out loud

Silence is home when you're not alone
Can you hear me now?

We all have a story we can't tell
I still don't know mine that well
Tonight I'll stay in this hotel
Tomorrow I'll live for myself

Who knows how long it's gonna take me to figure out
Where I belong and what it takes to settle down
Is this dream in my head or is this all that's left?
Can't get it off my chest
So I'll keep it to myself

We all have a story we can't tell
I still don't know mine that well
Tonight I'll stay in this hotel
Tomorrow I'll live for myself
