Sweetest Sound

(hummmm) Sunlight fading on the living room rug Unfinished puzzle sitting on the

floor

We’ve been hanging out since two o'clock And neither one of us

is heading for the door

You’re picking out a song on an old guitar

Finding the chords that feel just right

No fancy stage, no major plans Just a quiet kind of magic

in the evening light

And it’s the simple things that hold us tight Like a soft

melody in the fading light We don't need a crowd or a

big parade To love the little memories that we’ve made

If the whole world’s running in a giant race We can slow

down here and take our space

Trading secrets over cold green tea Laughing at the things that used

to make us stress

Finding out that being right here together Is the easiest way to

give the heart a rest

You draw a little doodle in the margin of my book A

small reminder that you’re staying around It’s funny how the loudest feeling

in the world Makes the absolute sweetest sound (hahaha)

'Cause it’s the simple things that hold us tight Like a soft

melody in the fading light We don't need a crowd or a

big parade To love the little memories that we’ve made

If the whole world’s running in a giant race We can slow

down here and take our space

Let the hours turn into days

Let the season

turn into years

All I know

is every step of the road Is clearer whenever you are near

No heavy promises, no big routine Just holding your hand in the

in-between

Yeah, it’s the simple things that hold us tight Like a soft

melody in the fading light

We don't need a crowd or a big parade To love the

little memories that we’ve made

If the whole world’s running in a

giant race We can slow down here and take our space

Take our space right here

Just a soft melody

And you next to me (ahhhh)
