Silence Lyrics


Lonely girl lies awake at night
Silence ringing in her ears
There's a boy who is on her mind
So much promise unfulfilled
She had waited so patiently
He had nothing more to say
Not a sound as she slowly walked away
Lonely boy watching from the bridge
His reflection in the lake
There's a girl who seems out of reach
And a choice he has to make
Lonely boy what will you become
If you let her slip away
Tomorrow's pain of regret may come too late
Too many people suffer in silence
Because they're afraid, love will never come their way
So many walk behind a veil of sorrow
So many know they have themselves to blame

Good reasons not to wait until tomorrow
So don't be afraid, love will always come your way
He should say he's a lonely man
She may have heard it all before, he should say he's a faithful man
She can never be too sure
If only he would communicate
There'd be nothing in their way
Only then would she understand his pain
Too many people suffer in silence
Because they're afraid, love will never come their way
So many walk behind a veil of sorrow
So many know they have themselves to blame
Too many people suffer in silence
So don't be afraid, love will always come your way

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Internationally popular British funk-rock quartet fronted by Mark King and Mike Lindup, best known for their hits Lessons In Love, Something About You, The Sun Goes Down (Living It Up), Love Games and Hot Water. They were formed on the Isle of Wight.

Though their membership has fluctuated throughout the years, the original and perhaps best-known lineup consisted of Mark King aka "Thunderthumbs" (vocals & bass), Mike Lindup (vocals & keyboards) and brothers Boon Gould (guitar) and Phil Gould (drums). After the success of the Running in the Family album, the Gould brothers left the band, citing musical differences and nervous exhaustion. King and Lindup continued, picking up replacement artists in Gary Husband on drums and former Go West and Kate Bush guitarist Alan Murphy. Murphy sadly passed away after suffering from an AIDS related illness in October 1989. The band released their then swansong album, Forever Now, in 1994.

At the end of the 80s, Mark King was recognized as one of the best bass players in the world having pioneered the 'slap and pull' technique, treating the bass as a percussion instrument. His style and virtuosity still are hugely influential, considering he also sang while he played very difficult basslines.

Following the formal breakup of the band in the mid-90s King later performed with a new lineup under the Level 42 moniker, before he and Lindup reunited to record Retroglide in 2006.

As of 2012, King and Lindup are still touring with personnel of Pete Ray Biggin, Sean Freeman and Nathan King completing the current lineup.
