A Quiet Kind of Love
Richard Chamberlain Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No thunder from the mountain, and no storm at sea.
No lightning from the sky, no surging oceans roar.
A quiet kind of love I′ve never known before.
But higher than the sky it is,
And deeper than the sea.
And taller than the mountain is
A happy kind of life my life is going to be
Because you've brought this quiet kind of love to me.
