Roo Panes
Quiet Man
[Verse 1]
It's in your nature, I am blessed
It's in the cradle of your smile, I rest
Was in the grass upon my back
On this, I contemplated, a smile upon my face

[Verse 2]
And I knew that I was done with being clever
Oh, something simple told me I'd be happy here
Spending all my heart on sweet forever
Oh love, I feel fearless when you're near

[Verse 3]
I was not so long ago bound up in worry
But I cannot seem to stop smiling of late
And I always said to you that I'd be honest
So I say grace has gifted me this happy state

[Chorus]
Singing, oh, wherever you go
I'll be there beside you
Oh, wherever you go
I'll be there beside you

[Verse 4]
When you take me from the fighter's ring
To be a quiet man, learn the art of listening
'Cause I heard too much of myself those days
And I found I missed the parlance of your ways
[Verse 5]
Well I'm going to keep my ears close to the ground
And hear your voice above the stampede trampling town
Oh, heaven knows that I am living on the sound
Of your voice, the day the light came through the clouds

[Chorus]
Singing, oh, wherever you go
I'll be there beside you
Oh, wherever you go
I'll be there beside you

[Outro]
Guess I'm trying to say I love you
I guess I'm trying to say I need you
I guess I'm trying to say I love you
Guess I'm saying I'll be alright
