So Quiet - Nik Kershaw

I thought I heard a sigh

As you waved the world goodbye

While the snow lies o’er the meadows like a shroud

And it’s so quiet, so quiet

Even the silence is too loud

So different yesterday

When you laughed the night away

Who knew that all the time you were too proud

And it’s so quiet, so quiet

Even the silence is too loud

So crusading, much too true

Not a cause that was too small for you

So romantic, too naïve

Not a kind enough breath to breathe

So when I think of you

I think of violet and blue

And all the things that make you stand out in a crowd

But it’s so quiet, so quiet

Even the silence is too loud

Wooah, oooh

Mmmm, aaaaaaah

So crusading, much too true

Not a cause that was too small for you

So romantic, too naïve

Not a kind enough breath to breathe

Your pleasure and your light

Was a never-ending fight

Just to find the silver lining in a cloud

And it’s so quiet, so quiet

Even the silence is too loud

Yes, it’s so quiet, so quiet

Even the silence is too loud
