Analysis of Comfortable Silence
Call off the dawgs
The search is over
You can run as you wish
But you will run to me
And I will accept you
As you accept me
We can talk about anything and everything
Laugh or cry because it is understood
Scream or whisper with trust
I do not care what we do
This moment is all we are
This I will cherish forever
You can rest your head on my pillow
I can rest my head on your pillows
As our hearts take turns beating
And we give our voices rest
Another stoplight
So quiet
So peaceful
So in love
