Another beautiful song by Jade Valerie.

I was looking for Jade's new album, Bittersweet Symphony on iTunes; instead, I found myself this treasure, which moved me to tears. The lyrics are simple, even repetitive, but once again, Jade's haunting voice and some very good music combine to great effect.

Lyrics:
Lying awake, I tremble and shake,
I'm trapped in those days, and I reach for your face
and I wonder.. where are you now?

In the midst of my mind, our fingers entwine,
and they're stronger than time, as constant as tides,
and I wonder.. where are you now?

Silently we say goodbye.
Silent as night.

Quiet as night, the angels came and closed your eyes,
and now, there's shadows where you used to lie;
I promise to remember.

Quiet as night, the angels came and closed your eyes,
I guess I'll never understand why;
I promise to remember.

(SPOKEN)
Quiet as night, the angels came and closed your eyes,
and I guess I'll never know why,
but I'll always remember.. I promise to.

Been talking to God, but I guess He forgot, cause I'm
still standing here with my unanswered prayers,
and I'm waiting.. I'm hurting.

Silently we say goodbye.
Silent as night.

Quiet as night, the angels came and closed your eyes,
and now, there's shadows where we used to lie,
but I promise to remember

Quiet as night, the angels came and closed your eyes,
I guess I'll never understand why,
but I promise to remember.
