How Strange the Silence Songtext
How strange the silence
Deep and timeless
It lays heavy in the night time air
All those voices
Lost and waiting
Echo through a windless night
Words found wanting
Words forgotten
I treated my own words like slaves
Oh silence
How strange the silence
When all is gone and taken away
Speak from the heart
Let the soul out
Or bind your tongue and speak not at all
Oh fire
Sacred fire
Your warmth is lost on these old bones
So it all went
And passed us by
Those days are gone, oh so long gone
Oh silence
How strange the silence
When all is gone and taken away
Deep and timeless
It lays heavy in the night time air
All those voices
Lost and waiting
Echo through a windless night
Words found wanting
Words forgotten
I treated my own words like slaves
Oh silence
How strange the silence
When all is gone and taken away
Speak from the heart
Let the soul out
Or bind your tongue and speak not at all
Oh fire
Sacred fire
Your warmth is lost on these old bones
So it all went
And passed us by
Those days are gone, oh so long gone
Oh silence
How strange the silence
When all is gone and taken away
