Silent Nite
Blues Company Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Silent night in a foreign city
All alone in the street and rain

Holy night in a foreign city
All alone in the street and rain
All is calm in foreign city
Station closed and I missed the train
Holy night in a foreign city
All alone got no place to go

Holy night in a foreign city
All alone got no place to go

All night in a foreign city
Walking through the dirty snow

All is calm in a foreign city
World I waiting for the newborn king





All is calm in a foreign city
World I waiting for the newborn king

Line by Line Meaning

Silent night in a foreign city
A peaceful night in an unknown place


All alone in the street and rain
No one to accompany on the wet roads


Holy night in a foreign city
A pure night in an unfamiliar location


All is calm in foreign city
Everything is still and quiet around


Station closed and I missed the train
Railway station shut and I couldn't catch the train


All alone got no place to go
Lonely with nowhere to head towards


All night in a foreign city
Throughout the night in an unexplored place


Walking through the dirty snow
Trekking on filthy snow pathways


World I waiting for the newborn king
The universe awaits the arrival of a fresh leader


All is calm in a foreign city
Everything is still and quiet around
