Silence and I Lyrics

Artist: The Alan Parson Project
Album: Eye In The Sky

(Lead vocal - Eric Woolfson)

If I cried out loud
over sorrows I've Known
And the secrets I've heard
It would ease my mind
Someone sharing the load
But I won't breathe a word

We're two of a kind
Silence and I
We need a chance to talk things over
Two of a kind
Silence and I
We'll find a way to work it out

While the children laughed
I was always afraid
of the Smile of the clown
So I close my eyes
Till I can't see the light
And I hide from the sound

We're two of a kind
Silence and I
We need a chance to talk things over
Two of a kind
Silence and I
We'll find a way to work it out

I can hear the cry
Of the leaf on a tree
As it Falls to the ground
I can hear the call
of an Echoing voice
And there's no one around

We're two of a kind
Silence and I
We need a chance to talk things over
Two of a kind
Silence and I
We'll find a way to work it out

Love the way the song builds, changes direction, then comes back and ends with an amazing guitar riff. Awesome.

Good Song...NOT Bad

He has kept all the pain he has inflicted and suffered voluntarily inside himself, his requested lesson in this life-dream-state. As he dies he welcomes the opportunity to experience the home-coming to the quiet space filled by the Creator to talk it over and come back as something/one else.

This is the song my son requested to be played at his funeral. It says so much about him.

Simply magestic. Great lyrics and performance that take one long time ago to the nice old days.
