When You Say Nothing At All
Alison Krauss & Union Station Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain what I hear when you don't say a thing
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near you drown out the crowd
Old Mister Webster could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
A touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
"When You Say Nothing At All" is a beautiful love song by Alison Krauss & Union Station that is perfect for capturing those special moments of connection between two people. The first verse of the song talks about the power of nonverbal communication - how someone can speak right to your heart without ever saying a word. The singer finds it impossible to explain the feeling they get when they hear their partner say nothing, but somehow that silence lights up the darkness in their life. This suggests a deep level of understanding and intimacy between the couple that doesn't require words to be expressed.
The second verse builds on this idea of understanding and intimacy by highlighting the physical and emotional signals that are being conveyed between the couple. The smile on the partner's face tells the singer that they are needed, while there is a truth in their eyes that promises they will never leave. The touch of their hand reassures the singer that they will always be caught when they fall. In these small moments of physical closeness, the singer realizes that their partner says it best when they don't say a thing. It's all about being present in the moment and in tune with one another's needs.
Overall, "When You Say Nothing At All" is a beautiful tribute to the power of nonverbal communication and the deep connection that can exist between two people. The song's lyrics capture the often-unspoken moments of intimacy and understanding that are at the heart of any successful relationship.

@@Melissa-ir7sx Thank you so much Melissa. If Temple Grandin meets with Arnold Schwarzenegger, this may be the decade of the Mind Tree by Tito Mukhopadhyay. I was watching a video which talked about a recent study that investigated the effects of psilocybin, the active ingredient in magic mushrooms, in mice and demonstrated its long lasting effects on the growth and structure of dendritic spines. Mutations in several genes strongly implicated in autism have resulted in altered dendritic spine morphology, including SHANK35 and FMR1.
If we look back in time we know Joni Mitchel red-pilled us back in 1966 with Joni Mitchell - Both Sides, Now. I remember back in 2nd Grade at the North School in Stoughton, Massachusetts learning this song with Mrs. Davis. This was really a wonderful awakening that came through in waves like Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb."

I remember reading the Mind Tree by Tito Mukhopadhyay. This was back in 2003. I recall reading in the Mind Tree a time where Tito memorized the cloud formations. And Tito woke up the next day and Tito was so disappointed that clouds were all changed. As I read Tito's words I understood that the picture he had in his head was real in his mind. He did not understand that nature changed. Change was painful for Tito.

@@Melissa-ir7sx Peter Jackson may be getting ready for even greater things. Many people do not want to reflect on the beautiful Franciscan Beauty of it. But today I was reflecting on some old movies. And I remembered how Sylvester Stallone and Carl Weathers brought us back to a time when we truly discovered our greatest enemies in faith could become our greatest friends in Christ.
I have the whole Rocky collection here at home. I consider Rocky movies training level instructions in genuine humility. I do not think the world understands just how much the Sacred Virgin is ready to fight for us.

I had a special needs child and when he was still alive he loved me singing to him. He was limited on what he could do the only word he could say is Mama. The smile on your face let's me know that you need me.He loved music and I think of him evertime I listen to this song and I can see his face with that million dollar smile and him reaching up to touch my hand. Thank you for such a beautiful song.

1994-95 My little baby girl was born with a complex heart condition. She loved this song. She would sit in front of the TV and smile at Alison's face. My little Kirsten passed after open heart surgery on July 3rd 1995. This is her song.
