Quiet

I'm not yours and you're not mine

But we can sit and pass the time

No fighting wars no ringing chimes

We're just feeling fine

This is where we're supposed to be

Sitting by a broken tree

No tragedy no poetry

Just staring at the sky

I could wait a thousand hours

Stay the same in sun and showers

Pick apart a hundred flowers

Just to be quiet

Tell me when you feel ready

I'm the one there's not too many

Hold my hand to keep me steady

Just to be quiet

With you

I like it here beside you dear

You're even more than you appear

And in the clouds my head is clear

Every time you say hello

So here's my heart and here's my mouth

And I can't help if things come out

'Cause there are words I want to shout

But maybe I'll stay low

I could wait a thousand hours

Stay the same in sun and showers

Pick apart a hundred flowers

Just to be quiet

Tell me when you feel ready

I'm the one there's not too many

Hold my hand to keep me steady

Just to be quiet

I could wait a thousand hours

Stay the same in sun and showers

Pick apart a hundred flowers

Just to be quiet

Tell me when you feel ready

I'm the one there's not too many

Hold my hand to keep me steady

Just to be quiet

With you
