Quiet Hours Lyrics

Morning light shines in your bedroom
It calls me in to your arms
For a single moment I have peace
The quiet hours passing by

It's not what I want; it's what I need

The quiet hours fall to pieces
Heaven isn't where you thought
The dream is dying, fading fast now
The quiet hours gone at last

It's not what I want; it's what I need

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think it's a about a being with a girl who you thought was right for you but ended up being a totally different person.

Morning light shines in your bedroom It calls me in to your arms For a single moment I have peace The quiet hours passing by

being in love with thinking about everything being content with that person and just spending time together.

The quiet hours fall to pieces Heaven isn't where you thought The dream is dying, fading fast now The quiet hours gone at last

then finally realizing shes not the one for you and everything you had planned to do with her is just fading away., then finally ending it.

Anyways love this tune, listen to it everyday :)
