Yes there was silence
Yes there was no people here
Yes I walk through the streets of Dublin
And no one was near

Yes I don’t know you
No I didn’t think I didn’t care
You live so very far away from
Just across the square

And I can’t reach
But I can ring
You can’t touch
But you can, you can sing
Across rooftops

Sing down the phone
Sing and promise me you won’t stop
Sing your love be known
Oh let your love be known

Yes there is isolation
You and me we’re still here
Yes when we open our eyes
We will stare down the fear

And maybe I said the wrong thing
Yes I made you smile
I guess the longest distance
Is always the last mile

I can’t reach
But I can ring
You can’t touch
But you can, you can sing
Across rooftops

Sing to me down the phone
Sing and promise me you won’t stop
Sing and you’re never alone
Sing as an act of resistance

Sing though your heart is overthrown
Sing, when you sing there is no distance
So let your love be known
Oh let your love be known

Though your heart is overhtrown
Let your love be known
