The Calm

Lyrics

It's vivid and brilliant I'm scared it'll fade The memories surface Like frogs in the rain I trip on the street So I lay in the grass I close my eyes I'm scared it'll pass I feel like I'll open my eyes And wake up in your bed I'll go to your kitchen And tap on your head You'll swat at my hand And you'll pass me a coffee She's sleeping on the couch So we try to walk softly I sit on the floor While you go to wake her up And the feeling I'm feeling Is filled up with love She grumbles and tells you To leave her alone But she pats my face And I feel likе I'm home Ahe finally sits up Snd I sit at her feet You sit down nеxt to her My chin on your knee I capture the moment As clear as I can You see it in my face And you reach for my hand You kiss my knuckles She links our fingers There's talk about breakfast The softness lingers You kiss my forehead She wants to act tough But I see in her eyes The feeling is love But I open my eyes I'm not at your place By the time it was over I was years out of state So I walk back home With grass in my eye You didn't call to say the news And I still wonder why
