Quietly There

Why didn't I see your eyes turning on me?
Had I been gentle when you told me goodbye
I might have caused a smile instead of your weary sigh
But no, I let you go without letting you know
How I depended on the love that we shared
What it meant to me to know you were there
Quietly there, happily there
I must have hurt you so many quarrels ago
No, you couldn't see the love hidden in me

I stay out late now, I don't want to go home
It's dawn when I reach the door
What do I have in store?
Only the quiet prayer you'll be quietly there
Quietly there, happily there
I must have hurt you so many quarrels ago
No, you couldn't see the love hidden in me

I stay out late now, I don't want to go home
It's dawn when I reach the door
What do I have in store?
Only the quiet prayer you'll be quietly there

Quietly there
Quietly there
Quietly
Quietly there
