It's a Quiet Thing

When it all comes true just the way you planned
It's funny but the bells do ring
It's a quiet thing
When you hold the world in your trembling hand
You'd think you'd hear a choir sing
It's a quiet thing

There are no exploding fireworks
Where's the roaring of the crowds?
Maybe it's the strange new atmosphere
Way up here among the clouds

I don't hear the drums, I don't hear the band
The sounds I'm told such moments bring
Happiness comes in all took turn
Well, what do you learn?
It's a quiet thing
A very quiet thing
