Quiet Lines Between Us
(mmm) The ceiling fan spins slow above my bed
Counting all the questions in my head
Then the quiet room begins to ring
And suddenly my world is listening
Hello breaks through the blue and grey
Chasing all the dark away
A thousand miles dissolve into the air
Just like you are standing right right there
Your breathing soft against the phone
I am not alone
(no, not alone) Your voice at midnight turns the cold to gold
The sweetest secret that my heart could hold
Every gentle word you say
Makes the quiet distance fade away
Stay on the line until the morning light
Your voice at midnight
makes everything right
You laugh a little,
soft and low
A soothing melody I've come to know
You speak of little things that made you
smile
And we just let the silence sit a while Wrapped inside your
steady
tone
I'm finally home (aah-ooo)
Even if the stars forget to shine
I have your whisper tangled up in mine
No empty room could ever pull us apart
You are right here resting on my heart (right here on my
heart)
Your voice at midnight turns the cold to gold
The sweetest secret that my heart could hold
Every gentle word you
say
Makes the quiet distance fade away
Stay on the line until the morning light
Your voice at midnight makes everything right (makes everything right)
Don't hang up yet...
Just breathe with me
Your voice at midnight...
(mmm, goodnight)
