Out Of The Silence Lyrics

(Dolly Parton)

Silence was around me as I walked along
My mind was so troubled I felt so alone
I had no desire to live I had not a will to go home
Then out of the silence came a song.

The words were sharp and they cut deep
Into my troubled mind
The melody was pursy as it tore
Into this heart of mine.

You have the legs to walk along while others are all lamed
You have a mind to think with while others are insanePorter Wagoner - Out Of The Silence - http://motolyrics.com/porter-wagoner/out-of-the-silence-lyrics.html
You live while others dying and yet no thanks're shown
Out of the silence came this song.

Then I saw a vision of myself my legs were bent and lame
Not only was I crippled but I couldn't speak my name
And then I saw a graveyard with my own funeral going on
Then out of the silence came a song.

You have the legs to walk along while others are all lamed
You have a mind to think with so why should you complain
You live while others die and yet no thanks're shown
Out of the silence came this song.

Out of the silence came a song...
