And playing ball
'Cause you ain't heard nothin' yet
Said, "Thank God for this quite place”
With his two little boys
You're callin' noise"
Did he drag out his past for himself
When silence is all you've got left
I sat down beside him
He said, "Son, if you think this is quite
'Cause you ain't heard nothin' yet
Painting pictures from his memories
His eyes came alive
When silence is all you've got left
Or was it for me?
In the rooms where your babies have slept
'Til you've lived in a house by yourself
'Cause you ain't heard nothin' yet
In the rooms where your babies have slept
It seems there's somethin' always goin' on
He spoke of dancin' with his wife
The old man kept talkin'
Between the wife and the kids, the TV and the phone
You should follow me home"
So don't wish for somethin' you will regret
So don't wish for somethin' you will regret
We'll all rest in peace, on that you can bet
'Til you've lived in a house by yourself
He said, "Son, what I hear is music
'Cause you ain't heard nothin' yet
