I Loved You Once in Silence Lyrics by Julie Andrews

A Little Bit of Broadway

1960

[GUENEVERE]
I loved you once in silence
And misery was all I knew
Trying so to keep my love from showing
All the while not knowing you loved me too
Yes, loved me in lonesome silence;
Your heart filled with dark despair
Knowing love would flame in you forever
And I'd never, never know the flame was there
Then one day we cast away our secret longing;
The raging tide we held inside would hold no more
The silence at last was broken
We flung wide our prison door
Every joyous word of love was spoken
And now there's twice as much grief
Twice the strain for us;
Twice the despair
Twice the pain for us
As we had known before
The silence at last was broken
We flung wide our prison door
Every joyous word of love was spoken
And after all had been said
Here we are, my love
Silent once more
And not far, my love
From where we were before
