Quiet - Lights

I'm not yours
You're not mine but we can sit and pass the time
No fighting wars
No ringing chimes
We're just feeling fine

This is where we're supposed to be
Sitting by a broken tree
No tragedy
No poetry
Just staring at the sky

I could wait a thousand hours
Stay the same in sun and showers
Pick apart a hundred flowers
Just to be quiet

Tell me when you feel ready
I'm the one
There's not too many
Hold my hand to keep me steady
Just to be quiet with you

I like it here beside you dear
You're even more than you appear
And in the clouds my head is clear every time you say, "Hello"

Here's my heart and here's my mouth
And I can't help if things come out
'Cause there are words I want to shout
Maybe I'll stay low

I could wait a thousand hours
Stay the same in sun and showers
Pick apart a hundred flowers
Just to be quiet

Tell me when you feel ready
I'm the one
There's not too many
Hold my hand to keep me steady
Just to be quiet with you
