Richard Marx Silent Scream lyrics

Twenty four and he believes for sure he's got it made
Fame is here for good and looks will never fade, he doesn't know
The game is never over â€~till the cards have all been played

Eighty three and still he feels his best is yet to come
He believes that youth is wasted on the young, he's alone
The only dream he ever has is being with someone

Love you when you're standing tall but nobody knows you
When you're falling, all you have to do is call
But nobody ever hears the silent scream

Christmas came and went again but still nobody came
Staring at her wedding photo in a frame, she's alone
We should hope the loss of memory helps to ease the pain

Love you when you're standing tall but nobody knows you

When you're falling, all you have to do is call
But nobody ever hears the silent scream

Memories, moments you recall, we should be remembered
For the greatest of them all, you can't begin to live
Someone else's life or your own will pass you by

Oh, who's to know, maybe we can learn
A thing Or two from everyone

Love you when you're standing tall but nobody knows you
When you're falling, all you have to do is call
But nobody ever hears the silent scream
