Nik Kershaw — So Quiet

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
