Chris De Burgh Quiet Revolution lyrics

There's a quiet revolution going on
Like a fire in every corner of the world
And friends that you have known for many years
Are talking with a new light inside
Talking with a brightness in their eyes

There are quiet conversations going on
As people speak about what they have seen
And everywhere, the feeling's getting stronger
That soon there will be change in our lives
From a thousand years of looking in the sky

Something is coming now, something is coming now
You will believe it when, you will believe it
When the light comes shining through
You will believe it when, you will believe it
When it's shining down on you

There are quiet celebrations going on
So many have been waiting for so long
To see the whole world waking from a dream
And find a new dimension inside
See a revelation in our time

Something is coming now, something is coming now

You will believe it when, you will believe it
When the light comes shining through
You will believe it when, you will believe it
When it's shining down on you

We must guard against the enemy
They can help us or they can betray us in the night
Don't talk, don't talk but this quiet revolution
Can destroy the men of darkness with the light

You will believe it when, you will believe it
When the light comes shining through
You will believe it when, you will believe it
When it's shining down on you

You will believe it when, you will believe it
When the light comes shining through
You will believe it when, you will believe it
When it's shining down on you
When it's shining down on you, on you
(Shining down on you, shining down)
