As high as the moon
So high were my spirits
When you sang out my name
And coming from you
It was enough just to hear it
Oh, it rang like the bells did today
But even the sturdiest ground
Can shift and can tremble and let us fall down…
Kindly unspoken
You show your emotion
And silence speaks louder than words
It’s lucky I’m clever
Cause if I didn’t know better
I’d believe only that which I’d heard
In the days of my folly
I followed your rules
Did what Simon Says to do
But I won’t let melancholy
Play me for a fool
Oh, no I’m on my way somewhere new
And as far as your lack of something to say
Well, to tell me goodbye there was no better way
Kindly unspoken
You show your emotion
And silence speaks louder than words
It’s lucky I’m clever
Cause if I didn’t know better
I’d believe only that which I’d heard
Bridge:
So don’t keep me up till the dawn
With words that’ll keep leading me on
I know much better than to wait for an answer from you

One of my current favourites. She’s a relative unknown outside of North America. I think she has a song on the One Tree Hill soundtrack.
Going somewhere, and missing that place thereafter.
It’s because of the people we meet there, and not the scenery. The connections we feel to a place, to a city, comes from the connections we share with the people we meet, people that we cannot and will never forget.
Maybe some things are better left unsaid.
