Lyrics
Jack: It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart.

Rachel: Without saying a word, you can light up the dark.

Jack: Try as I may, I could never explain what I hear when you don't say a thing.

''The smile on your face lets me know that you need me. There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me.''

''The touch of your hand says you'll catch me wherever I fall. You say it best...''

Rachel: ...when you say nothing at all.

''All day long, I can hear people talking out loud. But, when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd.''

Jack: Old Mr. Webster could...

Rachel: Try as they may, they can...

Jack and Rachel: ...never define what's been said between your heart and mine.

'The smile on your face lets me know that you need me. There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me.'

'The touch of your hand says you'll catch me wherever I fall. You say it best...'

Jack: ...you say it best...

Jack and Rachel: ...when you say nothing at all.

'The smile on your face lets me know that you need me. There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me.'

'The touch of your hand says you'll catch me wherever I fall. You say it best when you say nothing at all.'

Jack: You say it best when you say nothing at all.

Rachel: You say it best when you say nothing at all.

Jack and Rachel: That smile on your face, the truth in your eyes, the touch of your hand lets me know that you need me.

You say it best when you say nothing at all...You say it best when you say nothing at all...

Trivia

 * Jack's inclusion of the lyric "Old Mr. Webster" is a reference to Keith Whitley's original recording and Alison Krauss' cover, the former of which Jack claims to love. Soulless Warlock prefers that lyric over the alternate, which is song by Rachel.
