The Sound Of White Lyrics
Artist(Band):Missy Higgins
Review The Song (12)Print the Lyrics
Like a freeze-dried rose, you will never be,
what you were, what you were to me in memory.
But if I listen to the dark,
you'll embrace me like a star,
envelop me, envelop me...
If things get real for me down here,
promise to take me to before you went away -
if only for a day.
If things get real for me down here,
promise to take me back to the tune
we played before you went away.

And if I listen to, the sound of white,
sometimes I hear your smile, and breathe your light.
Yeah if I listen to, the sound of white ..
You're my mystery. One mystery. My mystery. One mystery.

My silence solidifies,
until that hollow void erases you,
erases you so I can't feel at all.
But if I never feel again, at least that nothingness
will end the painful dream, of you and me...
If things get real for me down here, promise to take me to
before you went away, if only for a day.
If things get real for me down here, promise to take me back to
the tune we played before you went away.

And if I listen to, the sound of white
sometimes I hear your smile, and breathe your light.
Yeah if I listen to, the sound of white
sometimes I hear your smile, and breathe your light.
And if I listen to, the sound of white.

I knelt before some strangers face,
I'd never have the courage or belief to trust this place,
But I dropped my head, 'cos it felt like lead,
And I'm sure I felt your fingers through my hair...

And if I listen to, the sound of white sometimes
I hear your smile, and breathe your light.
Yeah if I listen to, the sound of white.
The sound of white,
The sound of white,
The sound of white.

tears | Reviewer: victoria | 4/23/09

this is the only song to date that has actually made me cry. a friend gave to me on a mix. and within the first verse i was in tears. my best friend and i had broken apart and it was the most horrible thing i've ever went through. worse than breaking up with boys. she was my other half. my point a. i have never had another friendship that can compare to what we had. and sadly it kinda scarred me. in an ironic twist we started talking and hanging out again last summer. and now we say we're bests. but its not like how it was. and it never will be. this song nailed it. everything i felt. a song straight up owned me. slapped me in the face like a pimp. missy is amazing.

I think her reference to "the sound of white" is the white album by the beatles. which was one of her cousin's all time favorite bands... I agree missy is one of the best artists I have had the privledge to see in person....




The sound of White | Reviewer: Emma | 1/23/08

Hey Kate, yes she did write this song, it was for a cousin who died, and she went to a church and Knelt down before a women's face and dropped her head as it was so heavy and she thought she felt a hand through her hand. she also loved to sit there as there was so much peace. Missy told this to the Crowd at her one night only tour in Melbourne Dec 05 2007.



awesome song | Reviewer: kate | 1/5/08

this is one of my all time fave songs, does anyone know if she actually wrote this song herself? coz its such a deep song and makes me cry everytime i hear it...such a good singer!!!



The story | Reviewer: Cecilia | 11/1/07

I absolutely adore the story behind this song.
every time I see her perform it live I get emotional because I understand what she's feeling behind every lyric.
as a fan I like to keep a certain distance between her as a musician but knowing what this song is about really hits close to home.



missy | Reviewer: kiera | 6/19/07

this song is a great song and made me win the talent quest 6 years in a row!



sound of white. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/5/07

I love this song. To me, it tells that we should listen to the quieter side of things to get the beauty out of life. It uses senses such as hearing to describe how a smile can be percieved. A sound can remind a person of memories, such as a smile. Listening to the sound of white, which is something pure and simple is what causes this person to hear a smile. Its fantastic.



classical funk | Reviewer: anonymous | 6/5/07

missy higgins is a rare combination of great classical instruments and the catchy tune of a great modern song. it just stays in your mind for ages, and leaves you with this feeling like you know exactly what is going through the artists head
