Keep Quiet

When the wind dies down and the howling stops
 The hurting starts, then I hear your name
 In this quiet time, this aching time
 I can hear your fingers on the window pane
 If I was in the dark, if I was in the light
 If we were walking through the forests of the night together
 If we were taken down, down into the heart
 Of the blackest night where we could sleep forever
 Keep quiet, I hear you
 Keep quiet, I hear you
 When you sing I think I know more than I hear you speak
 I have to keep it close enough to me
 'Cause I don't want to disrupt all you think
 And I don't want to disturb what we keep quiet
 Baby, with these open arms I pray
 I will not see the day without you
 Homeless is the driving wind
 And I will run away with him without you
 Without you, without you, without you, without you
 When you sing I have to keep it close just as a hymn
 And in your breath I know just what you sing
 And spoken words might not be all we speak
 'Cause in our lungs there's something that we keep quiet
