Quiet Heart Lyrics
There was a time when I was lost in myself
You took my hand became my guide
There was a time you needed my help
I guess my Ego made me blind
It´s not the rain it´s not the streetlights
That makes your skin so pale at night
It´s your quiet heart
And your silence
As your teardrops stain my sheets
Let´s take a trip through the wires
Your dream is gone you are free
Stay free...
There was a time I had your life in my hands
And you had life left in your eyes
There was a time I caught your hiding inside
From something shining through the blinds
It´s not the shadow by the red lights
That makes my skin crawl late at night
It´s your quiet heart
And your silence
As your teardrops stain my sheets
Let´s take a trip through the wires
Your dream is gone you are free
It´s not the rain it´s not the streetlights
That makes your skin so pale at night
It´s your quiet heart
It´s your silence
As your teardrops stain my sheets
Let´s take a trip through the wires
Your dream is gone you are free
It´s your quiet heart
And your silence
As your teardrops stain my sheets
Let´s take a trip through the wires
Our love is dead you are free
You took my hand became my guide
There was a time you needed my help
I guess my Ego made me blind
It´s not the rain it´s not the streetlights
That makes your skin so pale at night
And your silence
As your teardrops stain my sheets
Let´s take a trip through the wires
Your dream is gone you are free
Stay free...
And you had life left in your eyes
There was a time I caught your hiding inside
From something shining through the blinds
It´s not the shadow by the red lights
That makes my skin crawl late at night
And your silence
As your teardrops stain my sheets
Let´s take a trip through the wires
Your dream is gone you are free
That makes your skin so pale at night
It´s your silence
As your teardrops stain my sheets
Let´s take a trip through the wires
Your dream is gone you are free
And your silence
As your teardrops stain my sheets
Let´s take a trip through the wires
Our love is dead you are free

What a beautiful song!!!!
This song is just amazing, these guys are truly talented
I think it's pretty much about a guy who's reflecting back on a past relationship and realizes that he caused his ex a lot of pain that he didn't realize at the time because she never really spoke out about her unhappiness with the relationship. "There was a time when I was lost in myself You took my hand became my guide There was a time you needed my help I guess my ego made me blind "
This is about the beginning of the relationship, how she helped him find himself and supported him, and in the end he was too blind to see that she needed help as well.
The chorus "It´s your quiet heart And your silence As your teardrops stain my sheets Let´s take a trip through the wires Your dream is gone you are free Stay free"
it's beautiful, and says a lot about how the girl never spoke out about how unhappy he made her, and now that he realizes it, he doesn't want to drag her back into the relationship because she's better off without him.
I love this song, it's so sentimental and bittersweet.
This is one of rather few Kent songs that's originally in English, which might explain why it works so well (the translated ones tend to lose a lot). Definately one of my favorites, but I don't think I'll try to analyze it beyond that. Lovely, quite simply.
