Tekster: Soundtrack Artists. A Quiet Thing.


Music: John Kander
Lyrics: Fred Ebb
Book: George Abbott + Robert Russell
Premiere: Tuesday, May 11, 1965

When it all come true
Just the way you planned
It's funny but the bells don't ring
It's a quiet thing
When you hold the world
In your trembling hand
You think you'd hear a choir singing
But it's a quiet thing

There are no exploding fire works
Where's the roaring of the crowd
Maybe it's the strange new atmosphere
Way up here among the clouds

Happiness comes in on tiptoe
Well, what do you know
It's a quiet thing
A very quiet thing...
