So Quiet

(album: B-Sides - 2022)

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

Whoa, ooh
Mm mm, ah

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
