Lyrics
Quiet Men
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Waiting - we were waiting
As the traffic moved through all our hearts and our heads
But things were different then
For the quiet men
Shifting - things were shifting
Through the walls and hall
There were no walls at all
For the quiet friends
Of the quiet men
Springtime - there was sunshine
Through the window panes
Down all the English lanes
Where they walked again
The quiet men
Talking, they were talking
Of the times to come
And all the time that's gone
And they smiled again
The quiet men
Listening - they were listening
As the season changed
And all the reasons changed
And people came and went
By the quiet men
Walking - they were walking
Through the rainy days
Looking at all the faces
And no-one ever noticed them
The quiet men
