I used to kneel beside my bed
At night when I was small
It was easy as breathing
Believing wasn't hard at all
I knew that you were there
Close as my next prayer
The world will break you down
Break your heart and shake your faith
But now you feel so far away
I don't know who's to blame
I don't talk to you as much
Maybe that's part of growing up
I carry on this one way conversation
I'm listening but you don't say a word
If your answer's in the silence I'll be patient
But it's hard to know my prayers are being heard
I'm waiting on a whisper just something to confirm
That you and me are still on speaking terms
I mostly come around now
When things aren't working out
I show up with my questions my stumbles
And my doubts always thinking of myself
And always asking you for help
So I carry on this one way conversation
I'm listening but you don't say a word
If your answer's in the silence I'll be patient
But it's hard to know my prayers are being heard
I'm waiting on a whisper just something to confirm
That you and me are still on speaking terms
Even though I know
You're more than I deserve
If I want to get back to how we were
So I carry on this one way conversation
I'm listening but you don't say a word
If your answer's in the silence I'll be patient
But it's hard to know my prayers are being heard
Yeah I'm waiting on a whisper just something to confirm
That you and me are still on speaking terms
Yeah that you and me are still on speaking terms
