Eb
I'm thunder, you're lightning

The clouds come and we appear

It hurts we never show our tears

So loud that it is never clear

Eb          Ab
I'm sorry
[Verse 2]
Eb
I might be defensive

Ab
But I promise that I'm listening

Despite all my fences

Know I'll always let you in

It kills me, this silence

So quiet it is deafening

I'm sorry

Or leave it for another day
