brittain ashford - it’s quiet uptown كلمات الأغنية

moments that the words don’t reach
there’s a suffering too terrible to name
hold your child as tight as you can
and push away the unimaginable
the moments when you’re in so deep
it’s easier to just swim down

and i move uptown
and learn to live with the unimaginable

hours in the garden
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

do you like it uptown?
it’s quiet uptown

his hair has gone grey. he p-sses every day
they say he walks the length of the city

you knock me out, i fall apart

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
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

see them walking in the park, long after dark
taking in the sights of the city

look around, look around
look around, look around

there are moments that the words don’t reach
there is a grace too powerful to name
we push away what we can never understand
we push away the unimaginable
standing in the garden
you are here by my side
take my hand
it’s quiet uptown

forgiveness
forgive me
look around, look around (forgiveness)
can you forgive me?
look around, look around (forgiveness)
can you forgive me?
