lyrics

I Miss The Silence
Dan Gabel


A year ago you walked out that door
Saying your other dreams couldn't wait anymore
Left me all alone in this quiet old house
Fighting to forget the life we dreamed about

Another month and I'd have surely cracked
But you walked through that door saying you wanted back
Tales of your adventure and all the friends you found
Made me think about my time when you weren't around

CHORUS
I miss the silence
that I used to fear
When you were running 'round and I was sitting here
I miss the silence
I used to dread my dear
So please don't get me wrong
I love your pretty songs
I don't want you gone
But sometimes...
I miss the silence

That guitar sat alone in the chair
While I sat missing your sound in the air
Now you're softly strumming "Let it Be"
Imagine my surprise at this thought hitting me

CHORUS
I miss the silence
that I used to fear
When you were running 'round and I was sitting here
I miss the silence
I used to dread my dear
So please don't get me wrong
I love your pretty songs
I don't want you gone
But sometimes...
I miss the silence

I took to rising early for the peace
The morning sun so soft, the stillness that’s released
You’ll be rising soon and I'm so glad
Cause you being around is worth missing what I had.

CHORUS
I miss the silence
that I used to fear
When you were running 'round and I was sitting here
I miss the silence
I used to dread my dear
So please don't get me wrong
I love your pretty songs
I don't want you gone
But sometimes...
I miss the silence
