Quiet Times lyrics

You ask me where I go tonight

I go back to today last year

When we knew how to make each other happier

Now there's hope with everything.

It's hard enough to feel the world as it is

And hold on anything

Without these quiet times you've brought 'round here.

I'm gonna have to run away

I'm sure that I belong some other place

I've seen another side of all

I've seen it keeps me wondering where my family is.

Its hard enough to see the world as it is

And hold on anything

Without these quiet times coming 'round here.

Now I miss you

Now I want you

But I can't have you

Even when you're here.

I suppose I have to take you with me

Broken mind I'd rather leave you here

To forget everything you've seen and known

Erase every idea.

And you walk up in the street

And hold my hand and smile

Well I won't be taken in

'Cause I know how it turns out

And it takes me back to these quiet times coming 'round here.

Now I miss you

Now I want you

You're not coming back

And I need you

But I can't have you

Even when you're here.

Now I miss you

Now I want you

You're not coming back

And I need you

But I can't have you

Even when you're here.
