She tests every [Dm7]word like a [Dm]fine [Am]wine[Dm7][Dm][Am]
She holds every [Dm7]thought like her [Dm]last [Am]dime[Dm7][Dm][C]

[F]Whispers have [C]all disap[G]peared

[F]Silence is [Dm7]king around [Am]here
[F]Silence is [Dm7]king around [Am]here[Dm7][Dm][Am][Dm7][Dm][Am]
Where are the [Dm7]dreams we were [Dm]aft[Am]er?[Dm7][Dm][Am]
Where is the [Dm7]joy and the [Dm]laugh[Am]ter?[Dm7][Dm][C]

Or is [G]destiny not [Bm]ours to [E]choose?
