Little Clouds
Walking home under the streetlights
Hands tucked deep inside my coat
Watching my breath turn into little clouds
Writing lines to a song I never wrote
I used to think that the big moments Were the only ones
that meant a thing
Now I’m just listening to the quiet night And the simple comfort
that it brings
And it’s the quiet after the rain
Washing away the noise and the pain We don't need to hurry
to figure it out We're learning what love is really about
Just a slow step,
taking our time
Your hand slipping softly into mine
Passing by the old corner diner
Glowing like a warm little island in the dark You point out
a cat sleeping on a ledge Finding magic in a tiny little
spark
You don't need a map to lead the way Or a big
speech to make me stay
Just that steady look inside your eyes Underneath the midnight skies
And it’s the quiet after the rain
Washing away the noise and the pain We don't need to hurry
to figure it out We're learning what love is really about
Just a slow step,
taking our time
Your hand slipping softly into mine
Let the world spin as fast as it wants to go
We can build a world of our own,
nice and slow Every small laugh,
every whispered word Is the sweetest thing I’ve ever heard
Yeah, it’s the quiet after the rain
Washing away the noise and the pain We don't need to hurry
to figure it out We're learning what love is really about
Just a slow step,
taking our time
Your hand slipping softly into mine
Softly into mine
Taking our time
In the quiet
after the rain
