Only we know
We know the secrets of our souls
The pain that we sow

The cold winter day
All around us, it’s turned to gray
The sadness you feel 
It all seems too real

The day drags on
The cold settles in
Inside, aches until the dawn

Only we know
We know the secrets of our souls
The pain that we sow

But I know you will abide
That’s all I need
To know you’re by my side

The night is here
But you stay near
The dark for you is not night
It’s as bright as the light

Only we know
We know the secrets of our souls
The pain that we sow

Now the morning’s here
The pain is still near
But all I know is that you’re dear

And all I feel 
Is all too real
But you are near
And you hear

All the secrets of our souls
