Close to the Silence

Lately I've been so slow to answer

I've been choosing my words carefully

Give me some time and a clear head

And I'll tell you everything I've seen

I'll tell you everythingI've got a lifetime of things to say

So softly spoken from within

So listen, close to the silence

You will find peace againSuddenly every thing's so far away

In my ear there's a whisper among the cries

So I try to see past the illusion

But the world gets into my eyesI've got a lifetime of things to say

So softly spoken from within

So listen, close to the silence

There are voices on the wind

So listen close to the silence

You will find peace againThen through the noise I heard you say

You'll find your way

So see me now a wandering child

Searching for peace 'causeI've got a lifetime of things to say

So softly spoken from within

So listen, close to the silence

There are voices on the wind

So listen close to the silence

You will find peace again
