Lyrics Blackbird / A Quiet Thing - Lea Salonga

It′s described almost perfectly in a song
That's from that show I was talking about from Florida
I hope you like the song, this is my favourite song

When it all comes true
Just the way you′d planned
It's funny
But the bells don't ring

It′s a quiet thing
When you hold the world in your trembling hand
You′d think you'd hear a choir sing
It′s a quiet thing

There are no exploding fireworks
Where's the roaring of the crowds

Maybe it′s the strange new atmosphere
Way up here among the clouds

But I don't hear the drums
And I don′t hear the band
The sounds I'm told
Such moments bring

Happiness comes in on tip-toe
Well, what'd′ya know
It′s a quiet thing
A very quiet thing
