In The Quiet

About this song

After his 6 year relationship ended Thomas found himself in a house that was quiet. Waking up one vivid morning he could imagine the love and laughter that once flourished between these walls. ‘In The Quiet’ gracefully describes that feeling of loneliness after a long term relationship. Each part of the song builds on the previous and culminates into a end salvo that pulls the listener ‘into the quiet’ and for a brief moment they are there with Thomas, reminiscing and processing the very real ending of something significant.

Lyrics

Sometimes in the quiet I have no choice Sometimes in the quiet I still hear your voice Sometimes in the mornin' I imagine us Sometimes in the mornin' I still feel the love That we lost along the way I can still hear us proudly say We're not like the others And we'll meet again some day Sometimes in the quiet I hear that promise break Sometimes in the quiet I wonder if we're too late 'Cause hearts change like they do And yours probably changed too And just like the others I bet it found somebody new Sometimes during sunsets I dream about our lives If we stayed together We wouldn't have survived There's no one here to blame No winners in this game But sometimes in the quiet I still say your name
