All IS QUIET ( MAN IN THE AIR)

Music by Bob Mintzer

Lyric by Kurt Elling

Meet me in a shadow land 　　of quiet.Speak to me　 of loving.　 But speak low to me - in a whisper.Whispers　　 open magical doors　 if you let them -Opening to hidden rooms 　　full of colors-In shades　 like marc Chagall.These days, everybody speaks of love　 so loud.They shout, as if love were something owed them -Like something they can order around -Like something that comes when 　called.Let your body fall away　 in quiet,Knowing　 loving grows over time, like a tree in the forest.Your face is as lovely as sleep – faint　 with stillness.I can smell the summer there　 in your tangled hair.It folds me in a dream.The reverie of silence – here　 in the hidden constellation -Joining the twilight sky, like starry bright -We're soaring over everything, like birds in flight,Into the quiet night.（staring eyes）We're allowed (It’s aloud) for all is 　quiet　 now
