Alison Krauss performs "When You Say Nothing At All" | In Performance at the White House

Good morning my RP Brothers and Sisters from the crystal clear gorgeous blue skies over the MetroWest area of Greater Boston... As you know today is "Hump day" and we are closing in on the Noon Hour here on the East Coast....

For my first Music Interlude for this pre-lunch hour time, I present to you Ms. Alison Krauss performing "WHen You Say Nothing At All", which was a performance at the White House...

"In Performance at the White House" is a series of events created to showcase the music that's contributed to the fabric of American culture and chronicled the history of its people, performed in the setting of the nation's most famous home.

Enjoy!

LYRICS:

"When You Say Nothing At All"

It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
Old Mr. Webster could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
