Lips Are Silent

Johan Kinde, Peter Bergstrand

Lyrics Translation

[Verse]
When I was walking in the cool air
With no straws to clutch in sight
When I saw the strange but perfect vision
Right among the shimmering lights
And now the gaze her eyes would give me
Send shivers down my spine
I watched her walk through crowded streets
My instinct's to follow her in time

[Chorus]
Lips are silent, eyes revealing
Although our lips are close, they're not concealing
But we're thinking what we're feeling
Like when our lips are silent, eyes revealing

[Verse]
And now I sometimes feel I love her
Still I mostly walked alone
But just one look into her eyes
And all those years be faded and be gone
So I followed her a bit further
Just like a child that seeks its toy
I never thought a total stranger
Could have this odd effect upon a boy

[Verse]
Lips are silent, eyes revealing
Although our lips are close, they're not concealing
But we're thinking what we're feeling
When our lips are silent, eyes revealing

[Bridge]
Running blinded [?]
Young and wild and foolish
Thinking all those stupid thoughts and
All those stupid things

[Verse]
But suddenly I turned the corner
And this girl, she was gone
And I knew I'd never find such eyes
In the years that were to come

[Verse]
Lips are silent, eyes revealing
Although our lips are close, they're not concealing
But we're thinking what we're feeling
When our lips are silent, eyes revealing

[Hook]
When our lips are silent, eyes revealing
When our lips are silent, eyes revealing

[Verse]
When I was walking in the cool air
With no straws to clutch in sight
When I saw the strange but perfect vision
Right among the shimmering lights
And now the gaze her eyes would give me
Send shivers down my spine
I watched her walk through crowded streets
My instinct's to follow her in time

[Chorus]
Lips are silent, eyes revealing
Although our lips are close, they're not concealing
But we're thinking what we're feeling
Like when our lips are silent, eyes revealing

[Verse]
And now I sometimes feel I love her
Still I mostly walked alone
But just one look into her eyes
And all those years be faded and be gone
So I followed her a bit further
Just like a child that seeks its toy
I never thought a total stranger
Could have this odd effect upon a boy

[Verse]
Lips are silent, eyes revealing
Although our lips are close, they're not concealing
But we're thinking what we're feeling
When our lips are silent, eyes revealing

[Bridge]
Running blinded [?]
Young and wild and foolish
Thinking all those stupid thoughts and
All those stupid things

[Verse]
But suddenly I turned the corner
And this girl, she was gone
And I knew I'd never find such eyes
In the years that were to come

[Verse]
Lips are silent, eyes revealing
Although our lips are close, they're not concealing
But we're thinking what we're feeling
When our lips are silent, eyes revealing

[Hook]
When our lips are silent, eyes revealing
When our lips are silent, eyes revealing

När plötsligt livet vänt dig ryggen
När även dagen mists sin glans
Och när som natten åter ger dig tankar
Om svek, du knappast trodde fanns

Du bara vandrar genom staden
Liksom en rök för stormens vind
Så plötsligt känner du en kvinnas närhet
Du vänder dig och sen står tiden still

Läppar tiger, ögon talar
Finns det någon här som kan förklara
Vad jag ser i
Dessa ögon
Hennes läppar tiger, ögon talar

Ja det finns stunder när jag sagt mig
Ta och gör din plåga kort
Men jag har alltid rest mig ur min dvala
Torkat tårarna och sakta vandrat bort

Och det finns stunder när jag älskat
Och sen sett kärlek bli till hat
Men blott en blick från hennes ögon
Och av minnena fanns plötsligt inget kvar

Läppar tiger, ögon talar
Finns det någon här som kan förklara
Vad jag ser i
Dessa ögon
Ja hennes läppar tiger, ögon talar

Det finns ögonblick när jag har sagt mig själv
Ta och gör din plåga kort
Men jag har alltid rest mig, torkat tårarna
Och sakta vandrat bort

Läppar tiger, ögon talar
Språk som tillhör världen
Ja det som gör att hjärtan brinner
Det som gör en ung man kär

Läppar tiger, ögon talar
Finns det någon här som kan förklara
Vad jag ser i
Dessa ögon
Hennes läppar tiger, ögon talar
För hennes läppar tiger, ögon talar
För hennes läppar tiger, ögon talar
