[Verse]
He stands so still in the living room
Strong façade won't let him break
Nobody sees the silent doom
Silent tears for his own sake
[Verse 2]
They all gather round the mother dear
Offer solace hold her tight
Forgotten father sheds a tear
In shadows he cries each night
[Chorus]
Oh silent tears don't make a sound
But they fall like rain upon the ground
Heart is heavy breaking apart
He's a strong man with a shattered heart
[Verse 3]
Late at night when all's asleep
He whispers to his child so sweet
Memories that he will keep
His silent tears no one will meet
[Verse 4]
In daylight he’s the pillar strong
As if he's learned to carry on
But his soul sings a sorrow song
Silent tears when all are gone
[Chorus]
Oh silent tears don't make a sound
But they fall like rain upon the ground
Heart is heavy breaking apart
He's a strong man with a shattered heart
