Artist/Band: Van Morrison
Lyrics for Song: Hymns To The Silence
Lyrics for Album: Vol. 2-Best Of



Oh my dear, oh my dear sweet love
Oh my dear, oh my dear sweet love
When I'm away from you, when I'm away from you
Well I feel, yeah, well I feel so sad and blue
Well I feel, well I feel so sad and blue
Oh my dear, oh my dear, oh my dear sweet love
When I'm away from you, I just have to sing, my hymns
Hymns to the silence, hymns to the silence
Hymns to the silence, hymns to the silence

Oh my dear, oh my dear sweet love it's a long, long journey
Long, long journey, journey back home
Back home to you, feel you by my side
Long journey, journey, journey
Yeah in the midnight, in the midnight, I burn the candle
Burn the candle at both ends, burn the candle at both ends
Burn the candle at both ends, burn the candle at both ends
And I keep on, `cause I can't sleep at night
Until the daylight comes through
And I just, and I just, have to sing
Sing my hymns to the silence
Hymns to the silence, hymns to the silence
My hymns to the silence

I wanna go out in the countryside
Oh sit by the clear, cool, crystal water
Get my spirit, way back to the feeling
Deep in my soul, I wanna feel
Oh so close to the One, close to the One
Close to the One, close to the One
And that's why, I keep on singing baby
My hymns to the silence, hymns to the silence
Oh my hymns to the silence, hymns to the silence
Oh hymns to the silence, oh hymns to the silence
Oh hymns to the silence, hymns to the silence
Oh my dear, my dear sweet love
Can you feel the silence? can you feel the silence?
Can you feel the silence? can you feel the silence?

Hymns to the silence, hymns to the silence
Hymns to the silence, hymns to the silence
Hymns to the silence, hymns to the silence
Hymns to the silence, hymns to the silence
Hymns to the silence, hymns to the silence.


Hymns To The Silence

Van Morrison's 'Hymns To The Silence' stands as a profound meditation on spiritual yearning and the quiet power of the soul. Recorded for his 'Vol. 2-Best Of' compilation, the track exemplifies Morrison's signature ability to blend soulful vocals with ethereal instrumentation, creating an atmosphere that transcends typical pop structures. The song reflects his lifelong exploration of mysticism and deep emotion, characteristic of his work spanning from his early 1960s roots to his later, more introspective periods. By weaving together gospel influences with psychedelic textures, the recording captures a moment of stillness that invites listeners into a contemplative space, reinforcing Morrison's status as a visionary figure in rock and soul music.
