she looks in his eyes, he looks away
She chalks it up as another one of those days
If there's a reason he's coming home late
She hasn't heard it yet

She warms up his dinner but he can't eat
She makes conversation when he don't speak
He shakes his head as the silence screams
'cause she hasn't heard it yet

Chorus:
If only love could cry out loud
It'd be enough to send this old house crashing down
Still, she'd chose to turn her head
'cause it's easier to deny
Than to admit he's been tellin' her goodbye
And she hasn't heard it yet

He tosses and turns in his easy chair
While she's sound asleep in the bed upstairs
But her heart is breaking then and there
And she hasn't heard it yet

He leaves his ring as a souvenir
Says so long to himself in the hallway mirror
He's just closed the door on eighteen years
And she hasn't heard it yet

Repeat chorus
