Eclipse Lyrics

There's an eclipse in your eye
Where I used to shine
Every secret untold
Is a planet aligned

Don't need prophets or preachers
To make sense of the signs
When the buried and hidden
Can be seen by the blind

You're right
Some words are just unspoken
So right
Then it all just falls apart

The day I break your heart

I caught my reflection
In the corner of your eye
You said "Don't even ask the question
And I won't tell the lie"

Where there's no accusation
There's no need for denial
And if you hadn't heard that whisper
There'd be no tear to wipe from your eye
You're right
Some words are best unspoken
So right
Then it all just falls apart

The day I break your heart

Never took no advice
Not the foolish, not the wise
All the truth that I needed
Was right there in your smile

Every prophecy written
Of what's going to be
All beginnings and endings
They're about you and me

You're right
Some words are best unspoken
So right
Until it all just falls apart

You're right
Some words are best unspoken
So right
Then it all just falls apart
The day I break your heart

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
