Sometimes I just like to be quiet.
I think there's something special about it.
Well, I like my friends,
I'm with them most of the time,
But sometimes I just like to be quiet.

If I stop talking and listen,
I hear a bird in the tree singing.
Her melody sounds so happy to me.
Oh, sometimes I just like to be quiet.

Chorus
I like to take time to be peaceful,
A special time for me to be still.
You, too, may find you'll like it,
And you'll enjoy the quiet.
You may hear something special if you try it!

When I'm alone in bed in the evening,
I close my eyes as I am thinking
Of all the good things that my memory brings.
Oh, sometimes it feels good to be quiet.-

I have one mouth, but I have two ears,
So it is obvious and very clear that
Listening is an important thing.
So sometimes it is good to Be quiet.

[Repeat Chorus 2 Times]

Oh, sometimes I just like to be quiet.
