Full lyrics (repeat the 4-line pattern as verse–chorus or verse–verse–chorus):
Verse 1
In the quiet night I see your shadow pass by
Soft and slow, memories come back home to stay
In the quiet night I hear your whisper again
Through the dark, calling out my name
Chorus
Hold me close, don’t fade away
Even if it’s just today
Every piece of you remains
In the quiet night
Verse 2
On the empty street I walk the road we used to know
Step by step, echoes follow where we’d go
In the quiet night I feel your hand in mine
For a moment, everything’s fine
(Chorus again)
Bridge / ending variation (repeat last line slower, let piano arpeggiate)
In the quiet night…
In the quiet night…
you still stay.
