Quiet - Lights

Lights - Quiet
First time playing it live :) She's beyond amazing !

Lyrics:

I'm not yours and your not mine
but we can sit and pass the time

no fighting wars no ringing chimes
were just feeling fine

this is where were supposed to be
sitting by the broken tree
no tragedy no poetry, just staring at the sky.

I could wait a thousand hours
stay the same, in sun and showers
pick apart a hundred flowers
just to be quiet

Tell me when you feel ready
I'm the one there's not too many
hold my hand to keep me steady
just to be quiet

with you-ooh-ooh-ooh
with you-ooh-ooh-ooh

I like it here
beside you dear
you're even more than you appear

And in the clouds my head is clear
every time you say hello

here's my heart and here's my mouth
and I cant help if things come out

cause there are words I want to shout
maybe ill stay low


I could wait a thousand hours
stay the same in sun and showers
pick apart a hundred flowers
just to be quiet


tell me when you feel ready
I'm the one theres not too many
hold my hand to keep me steady
just to be quiet

with you-ooh-ooh-ooh
with you-ooh-ooh-ooh

This is gonna be an odd comment, but your video is the FIRST of Lights' playing "Quiet" live - ever. I remember back in '09 and on the message board, this was posted. Congrats. Lol.

@crimsonholocaust I knooooow! I remember seeing it on the message boards and then it was on lights-love and I geeked out with happiness hahaha.

[kittypup33]

how early did you have to get there to be front row? i'm seeing her tuesday and i don't know what time to get there. hahaha

[Rija101x]

it depends on where you are really, i didn't have to line up early cause it was in cardiff, but depending on where you live im guessing a safe time would be 11 ish, if you want to be right at the front =/ hope that helps :)

[spub110]

I cant hear her singing at all

[Rija101x]

its easier once you know what the words are :) i couldnt by the video at first either

[MimzySongs]

it's got that 80s new wavey sound ... i love it!

[monstermarianna]

the beginning reminds me of world of war craft x] love this song! it's my favorite off the album :D

[crimsonholocaust]

@Rija101x Ha-ha, I saw her latest video of her playing "Quiet" and then it reminded me of the first time I saw a video of her playing it live. Lol. Just like whoever filmed her playing "Toes" or "Where the Fence is Low", they'll be the first. :)

[synthnoise3]

LOL WOULD'NT IT BE AWQUARD IF SHE WAS LOOKING INTO YOUR CAMERA LENS THE WHOLE TIME?

[LTCimbulletproof]

geeee whiz she is gorgeous! and she sounds so similar on the album, it's good to know she doesn't use voice thingies to make herself sound better.

[multisuperkitty]

@coolmasn i know!! You don't need to remind me! I was just comparing it! She's way better, I know! And yes I ttly agree that she did this before Owl City. She's like a rising star, but she should totally make it

[coolmasn]

@multisuperkitty She did this BEFORE Owl City >_>

[multisuperkitty]

this is like a girl vrsion of owl city.

[richiemo2000]

No the begining sounds like music from "Gangs of New York" and it took me awhile to figure it out but I knew it sounded familiar

[katouzaza]

Love this song...
