How Sweet The Silence - Gino Vannelli

How wondrous the woods on a wintry night

The treetops washed in silver light

How peaceful the hill and valleys below

Sleeping beneath a blanket of snow

How sweet the silence

How sacred the hush

How perfect the stillness

I’ve yearned for so much

How sweet the silence

Oh nightfall divine

That grants me comfort in

Troubled times

How thoughtful the stars to watch over me

And the moon to keep me company

How gentle the wind that scatters my prayer

For all my brothers and sisters out there

How sweet the silence

How sacred the hush

How perfect the stillness

I’ve yearned for so much

How sweet the silence

Oh nightfall divine

That grants me comfort in

Troubled times

How sweet the silence

How sacred the hush

How perfect the stillness

I’ve yearned for so much

How sweet the silence

Oh nightfall divine

That grants me comfort in

Troubled times

How softly the whitetail steps on the ground

How sweet the silence I have found
