The Week That Was It's All Gone Quiet song lyrics

The buzzing of the house has disappeared

The glow is dimmed and contact's lost

Voices, faces who were here

The corner of the room was on and

Nothing else was needed

No one else required

Nothing happens now it's all gone quiet

For all intents, for all our trust

What was ever true?

(The leaps of faith we made

I wonder now if anything was true)

The daily grind it sprang to life

Watching what was on instead of watching out

(The daily grind it sprang to life

by switching on and looking into you)

The hours and hours and time to change

I realise I'm one of all the same

But when (I'm sure) I see you soon remind me how you lit up every room

You knew that you were needed

You talked and never tired

How does it feel now that you've been retired?
