Silent House Lyrics


These walls have eyes
Rows of photographs and faces like mine
Who do we become
Without knowing where we started from?
It’s true, I’m missing you
And I stand alone inside your room
Everything that you made by hand
Everything that you know by heart
I will try to connect all the pieces you’ve left
I will carry it on and let you forget
I’ll remember the years when your mind was still clear
All the flickering lights that filled up this silent house
One room, two beds
In the closet hangs your favorite dress
Good books that you’ve read
Are in pieces now, the pages are shredded
Everything that you made by hand
Everything that you know by heart

I will try to connect all the pieces you’ve left
I will carry it on and let you forget
I’ll remember the years when your mind was still clear
All the laughter and light that filled up this silent house
Everything that you made by hand
And everything that you learned by heart
Every name that you can’t recall
I will try to connect all the pieces you’ve left
I will carry it on, let you forget
I’ll remember the years when your mind was still clear
And the flickering lights that filled up this silent house
Silent house

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Formed around the unique song writing talents of William Merriman the Harvest Minister's music is a blend of classic pop, flowing melodies, and tortured lyrics. The sound of the Harvest Ministers reflects Will's influences, Hank Williams, Ray Davies, Buddy Holly as much as it does traditional Irish culture in its use of instruments like violin and accordion. The band started life in 1987 in Dublin playing the local circuit as an acoustic trio with William Merriman on guitar and vocals, Maeve Roche on vocals and Padraig McCaul on saxophone.
