Silas says he'll take me far away

You can tell he means it by the look on his face

Run until the hurt and open road is far behind us, my silas.

Silas says my name like it's a prayer

A quiet reverence hanging in the air

And as for demons running round my mind

You'll never find us, my silas.

How could I deserve him when I could never earn him?

All that I can see is how kind he is to me.

On the nights I cried til I can't breathe

Silas stays with me until I sleep

Hands that hold my heart so tenderly

Could never bind us, my silas.

I'm hopelessly romantic

And hopefully he can stand it

All that I can know

Is I never want to let him go.

Silas will be back for me one day.
