Silence can be a virtue Silence can be a virtue it's true High hopes destined to blossom High hopes destined to blossom in you Casting a spell I'm ringing a bell I'm crossing my fingers Wishing you well Wishing you well I'm kissing and telling Strangely compelling Glowing with pride Whisper tell me a secret Whisper tell me a secret desire Blameless I'm only playing Blameless I'm only playing with fire Clearing my conscience Betting on nonsense Crossing my fingers Wishing you well Wishing you well I'm kissing and telling Glowing with pride I'm dying inside Faithless I'll stop at nothing Faithless I'll stop at nothing to win Lawless breaking commandments Lawless breaking commandments I sin Laughing it off My fingers are crossed The same empty gesture Pardons a lie You have a grievance I have a sixth sense Spare me the pretense It doesn't count It doesn't count It doesn't count It doesn't count It doesn't count It doesn't count It doesn't count
