Quietly There |
Why didn’t I see your eyes turning on me |
Had I been gentle when you told me goodbye |
I might have caused a smile instead of your weary sigh |
But no, I let you go without letting you know |
How I depended on the laughs that we shared |
Oh, what it meant to me to know you were there |
Quietly there, happily there |
I must have hurt you so many quarrels ago |
Oh no, you couldn’t see the love hidden in me |
I stay out late now, I don’t want to go home |
It’s dawn when I reach the door |
What do I have in store |
Only the quiet prayer you’re waiting quietly there |
No, couldn’t you see the love hidden in me |
I stay out late now, I don’t want to go home |
It’s dawn when I reach the door |
What do I have in store |
Only the quiet prayer you’re waiting quietly there |
