JP Cooper – In The Silence lyrics

JP Cooper – In The Silence lyrics

I've been seeking silver linings, feeling incomplete
Singing "oh oh I wish it didn't taste so bittersweet"
So enamoured, stutter, stammered, oh my voice was broke
Like a poor man stood before the queen
I tripped over my tongue before I spoke

And though I never said it with words
There was love in the silence
Even now after all of these years
You're the light in my darkness

Used to share that feeling, dreaming
Gazing at the bedroom ceiling
Oh oh now I'm lay here wishing you'd come home

And though I never said it with words
There was love in the silence
Even now after all of these years
You're the light in my darkness
Darling please, listen close and you'll hear
There's still love in the silence
Even now after all these long years
I feel love in the quiet

And though I never said it with words
There was love in the silence
Even now after all of these years
You're the light in my darkness
Darling please, listen close and you'll hear
There's still love in the silence
Even now after all these long years
I feel love in the quiet

This song is about how in a long term relationship perhaps there was less to talk about than at the beginning of the relationship. Although the silence seemed like a loss of love, there was always love there. They never fell out of love just settled in a comfortable less talkative life.

"In the Silence" speaks of a man who is so in love with his wife/girlfriend but just can't seem to find the right words to tell her how he feels. He gets tongue tied and trips over his words, looking the fool. But, he knows that the love is there, it's so palpable, it hangs in the silence. He may have been busy chasing seemingly more important things, but his love for her has only grown more over time. He tells her to listen , listen closely, and she will hear his love for her in his silence. He never could find the words, so the quiet spoke louder than any words could have. And years later, it hasn't changed. She is his whole world, and she will feel him- feel his love for her-- best when its quiet.

That the love he has for her is so strong that he doesn't even need to speak for her to know. That even nonverbal behaviors of the look of adoration, acts of shy/nervousness just by being in the same vicinity of her, and even train of thought is stunted as the brain constantly distracted to instead focus on her.
