It's Quiet Uptown
There are moments that the words don't reach
- There are moments that the words don't reach
- There is suffering too terrible to name
- You hold your child as tight as you can
- Then push away the unimaginable
- The moments when you're in so deep
- Feels easier to just swim down
- And so they move uptown
- And learn to live with the unimaginable
- I spend hours in the garden
- I walk alone to the store
- And it's quiet uptown
- I never liked the quiet before
- I take the children to church on Sunday
- A sign of the cross at the door
- And I pray
- That never used to happen before
- If you see him in the street walking by himself
- Talking to himself have pity
- You would like it uptown it's quiet uptown
- He is working through the unimaginable
- His hair has gone grey he passes every day
- They say he walks the length of the city
- You knock me out I fall apart
- Can you imagine
- Look at where we are
- Look at where we started
- I know I don't deserve you
- But hear me out that would be enough
- If I could spare his life
- If I could trade his life for mine
- He'd be standing here right now
- And you would smile
- And that would be enough
- I don't pretend to know
- The challenges we're facing
- I know there's no replacing what we've lost
- And you need time
- But I'm not afraid
- I know who I married
- Just let me stay here by your side
- And that would be enough
- If you see him in the street walking by her side
- Talking by her side have pity
- Do you like it uptown it's quiet uptown
- He is trying to do the unimaginable
- If you see him walking in the park long after dark
- Taking in the sights of the city
- Look around look around look around
- They are trying to do the unimaginable
- There are moments that the words don't reach
- There's a grace too powerful to name
- We push away what we could never understand
- We push away the unimaginable
- They're standing in the garden
- Standing there side by side
- She takes his hand
- It's quiet uptown
- Forgiveness can you imagine
- Forgiveness can you imagine
- If you see him in the street walking by her side
- Talking by her side have pity
- Look around look around
- They are going through the unimaginable
