[00:29.060]Australian man, Scandinavian town,
[00:37.300]Kicking stones round a square.
[00:42.940]Sat for a while and carved out a smile,
[00:51.250]As if someone would care.
[00:53.290]
[00:56.730]Said I’m a long way from the Gold Coast.
[01:00.240]Furthest I’ve ever known,
[01:05.620]Oh and this just ain’t my home.
[01:10.940]It was my wife's idea but she’s no longer here.
[01:19.820]She left me travelling alone.
[01:22.360]
[01:27.580]I never heard silence,
[01:34.920]Ring out like a bell.
[01:41.940]I never heard silence,
[01:46.300]Like last night in my expensive hotel.
[01:56.100]Well I’m loving a shadow,
[02:03.330]I’m trying to catch the rain.
[02:10.370]But I never heard silence,
[02:17.000]Till I heard it today.
[02:19.100]
[02:49.990]She walked out of the hotel,
[02:53.590]I could still smell the smoke,
[02:58.120]Of the burning heart left inside.
[03:04.090]She said men are all assholes
[03:08.290]And life’s a bad joke.
[03:09.850]
[03:12.760]She laughed and started to cry.
[03:18.130]See, ten years with this man,
[03:22.500]And a life time of plans,
[03:26.930]Oh, and I loved him to his bones.
[03:32.670]Now I have lines on my skin
[03:36.430]And he has traded me.
[03:41.510]He left me travelling alone.
[03:43.950]
[03:49.100]Well I never felt silence,
[03:56.320]Hear me like a train.
[04:03.140]I never felt silence,
[04:08.570]Like blood coursed through my veins.
[04:17.200]Well I’m loving a shadow,
[04:24.600]And I’m trying to catch the rain.
[04:32.150]I never heard silence,
[04:38.790]Till I heard it today.
[04:47.060]I never felt silence,
[04:53.440]Till I felt it today.
