Doctor Who "Abigail's Song" Lyrics from "A Christmas Carol" Soundtrack

Although an effort was made to transcribe Abigail's Song, the lyrics were only from a small section of the song. Now, with the release of the A Christmas Carol soundtrack, we can be sure of the accuracy of the words. Here are the lyrics of Katherine Jenkins' magical rendition of Murray Gold's Abigail's Song (Silence Is All You Know), as printed in the soundtrack's booklet.
When you're alone, silence is all you know.
When you're alone, silence is all you know
Let in the noise and let it grow.
When you're alone, silence is all you see
When you're alone, silence is all you'll be
Give me your hand and come to me.
When you are here, music is all around.
When you are near, music is all around.
Open your eyes, don't make a sound.
Let in the shadow, let in the shadow,
Let in the light of your bright shadow.
Let in the shadow, let in the shadow.
Let in the light of your bright shadow.
Let in the light.
Let in the light.
Let in the light of your sweet shadow.
When you're alone, oh,
Silence is all you know.
Silence is all,
Silence is all around.
Silence is all
Silence is all around
For more wonderful musical melodies, be certain to pick up a copy of the A Christmas Carol soundtrack, which went on sale yesterday.

How horribly sentimental.

Silence will fail.

Is there some kind of interpretation of the accompaniment?  I would like sheet music transcribed for just the piano... just a simple transcription with the cords and the running notes.  Does anybody know of anything like that?

Hello! I would love to know if there is any sheet music to Abigail's Song at all? Anything other than guitar tab, which seems to be the only thing I can find. Piano/vocals preferably. Thanks!
