Quiet Look

Capo 2
Bm G D
She was wearing a black dress as she spoke across the years
Bm G D
He nearly dropped his drink to hear her voice ringing in his ears
Bm G D
Love in the ruins, late for the show
Bm G D
She said, love will always live, if we don't let it grow
Chorus:
A D
I will pass you on the street and we will say trivial things
A G D
But I will never cease to search your eyes for that quiet look
A G D
And I will always be one who sighed for her quiet look
When you left our hometown, where did you go
He heard her answer and said sorry I didn't know
We don't have secrets but we'd have some if we'd meet
She said, love stays romantic if it stays incomplete
Chorus
She said, back then I always felt so strange
It's like a revelation to see that nothing has changed
What am I seeking - a lost piece of myself
I left with you like a key upon a shelf
