Originally featured in the film Defying Gravity....
This version features a 3rd verse that wasn't used in the film version
I recorded this live demo as a group of 40 songs to be considered for my newest CD
I’ve got a million thought running through my head
I’m thinking of those words we left unsaid
Somewhere in the middle of the right and left
Oh I’m standing all alone tonight
All the stars of heaven are shining on me tonight
And I’m feeling so out of step
With my pain and regret
And the only words left
Are the words…… unsaid

There’s a part of me that’s apart of you that is
Bound by the way our souls touch with every kiss
Like a leaf swept up by a rising wind
Oh you lift me higher…
Higher then I’ve ever been
Oh somewhere above the clouds
Close to heaven
But I’m falling without a net
Uncertain what is next?
And the only words left
Are the words……. unsaid

Tonight feels so long like forever came and went
And more then ever in my life I could really use a friend
To hold onto and talk about
Everything that could have been
But I’m here standing all alone tonight
All the stars of heaven are shining on me tonight
And I’m feeling so out of step
With my pain and regret
And the only words left
Are the words…… unsaid
Oh….. The words unsaid
