(Tim O'Brien) All those untold stories All those silent lies We'll never know each other Keepin' them deep inside (let's) Wash away the troubles Keepin' us apart Tell those untold stories Let the healin' start It's been so long ago We went our separate ways Now maybe time has changed us And worn the hurt away You look the same as ever I'm glad you're here with me Take a look into my eyes And tell me what you see All those untold stories All those silent lies We'll never know each other Keepin' them deep inside (let's) Wash away the troubles Keepin' us apart Tell those untold stories Let the healin' start Now, I don't want forgiveness Honey, I don't need you now We've built a wall between us It's time to tear it down Let's plant a tree together Maybe we can make it grow If not now then maybe never We might not ever know (about) All those untold stories All those silent lies We'll never know each other Keepin' them deep inside (let's) Wash away the troubles Keepin' us apart Tell those untold stories Let the healin' start
