Quietly...

I sit here Quietly
thinking of you
Ever so Quietly
waiting of you

O how it used to ring
And how terrible
it is
That there it sits
Quietly
Waiting for your call

As I sit here Quietly
thinking of you
As I sit here quietly
waiting for you
I think to myself
Ever so Quietly
how Quiet my life is without you

But then
I wonder…
Why am I quiet
Why am I thinking?
Why am I waiting?
Why?
Why?
Why?

I hate to be Quiet
I hate to be thinking Quietly
I hate to be waiting Quietly
I Quietly ever so hate it

And as I sit here
ever so Quietly
I realise
ever so silently
how much
I ever so Quietly
want you

BUT NO MORE

Wait
What am I saying?
I can never Quietly forget
I doubt I can Quietly ever

‘Cos Quietly I think
How Quiet I am
How Quiet I’ll be
As I Quietly wait
Wait for you
to Quietly come
into my arms
As I quietly wait
for us to be one

And when we are
Ever so Quietly
Quietly in each other
And when we are
Ever so Quietly
One

I shall whisper to you
Ever so Quietly
How I Quietly
Loved You all along.
