It's Quiet Uptown

[Verse 1]

There are moments that the words don't reach

There is suffering too terrible to name

You hold your child as tight as you can

Then push away the unimaginable

The moments when you're in so deep

Feels easier to just swim down

And so they move uptown

And learn to live with the unimaginable

I spend hours in the garden

I walk alone to the store

And it's quiet uptown

I never liked the quiet before

I take the children to church on Sunday

A sign of the cross at the door

And I pray

That never used to happen before[Chorus]

If you see him in the street walking by himself

Talking to himself, have pity

You would it uptown, it's quiet uptown

He is working through the unimaginable

His hair has gone grey, he passes every day

They say he walks the length of the city

You knock me out, I fall apart

Can you imagine?[Verse 2]

Look at where we are

Look at where we started

I know I don't deserve you

But hear me out, that would be enough

If I could spare his life

If I could trade his life for mine

He'd be standing here right now

And you would smile

And that would be enough

I don't pretend to know

The challenges we're facing

I know there's no replacing what we've lost

And you need time

But I'm not afraid

I know who I married

Just let me stay here by your side

And that would be enough[Chorus]

If you see him in the street, walking by her side

Talking by her side, have pity

Do you like it uptown? It's quiet uptown

He is trying to do the unimaginable

If you see him walking in the park, long after dark

Taking in the sights of the city

Look around, look around, look around

They are trying to do the unimaginable[Verse 3]

There are moments that the words don't reach

There's a grace too powerful to name

We push away what we could never understand

We push away the unimaginable

They're standing in the garden

Standing there side by side

She takes his hand

It's quiet uptown

Forgiveness, can you imagine?

Forgiveness, can you imagine?[Chorus]

If you see him in the street, walking by her side

Talking by her side, have pity

Look around, look around

They are going through the unimaginable
