I thought I heard a sigh as you waved the world goodbye
While the snow lies on meadows like a shroud
And it's so quiet, so quiet
and even the silence is too loud
So different yesterday when you laughed the night away
When you knew that all the time you were too proud
And it's so quiet, so quiet
and even the silence is too loud
So crusading, much too true
Not a cause that was too small for you
So romantic, too naive
And not a kind enough breath to breathe
So when I think of you, I think of violet and blue
And all the things that makes you stand out in a crowd
And it's so quiet, so quiet
and even the silence is too loud
Your pleasure and delight was a neverending fight
Just to find the silver lining in the clouds
And it's so quiet, so quiet
and even the silence is too loud
yes it's so quiet, so quiet
and even the silence is too loud
