Quiet now.
Your voice sings miles away
but somehow I hear your song resound
A little bit softer each day
And from my tired heart, a little bit farther away.
I’ll sing alone
The whole day through.
Just do your best to hear me.
It’s all you can do.
You have my attention
Like you’ve had all the while,
Since that first day when you made my heart smile,
With loving eyes and tired sighs that follow.
You have my attention
Like a shout through an empty sanctuary.
Speak but a whisper;
I’ll hear a sermon
I’ll sing alone
the whole day through.
Just do your best to hear me.
It’s all you can do.
I’ll sing alone
the whole night through.
While you sleep safely,
I’ll be thinking about you.
You have my attention.
