Written by Belle And Sebastian
F#m Bm Something set me thinking, E A When i opened up my eyes Bm E That there was nothing there to tell me Bm E I'd been listening to lies. F#m Bm But in silence there is truth E A There is beauty, there is love Bm E There is nothing in the silence F#m To be frightened of. F#m Her retreat and so few words E Is the last thing you'd expect. Bm But there's danger in assuming E That she's being direct. Bm Take a look behind her eyes E And you will see. Bm That she knows nothing of silence E F#m Silence can only come from me. Instrumental 2x:F#m Bm Allow me then a little time E A To listen to their voices. Bm E It's the glamour and confusion, Bm E It's the rattling and the noises. F#m Bm That obscure the truth, the beauty E And the love. Bm E And their clarity that silence F#m Is the guardian of. F#m She talks of clarity and silence E Of beauty and of truth. Bm But search her heart for evidence E Search herself for proof. Bm Take a look behind her eyes E And you will see. Bm That she knows nothing of silence E F#m Silence can only come from me.
