Watercolors in the Sun

[Intro]
[Verse]
Frost on the window pane
Dawn light begins to rain
Through the filigreed glass
As the slow hours pass
Muted strings start to play
Chasing the night away
[Pre-Chorus]
Potted citrus fills the room
Waking every hidden bloom
On the marble side table
Life feels like a fable
[Chorus]
Small things you never say
Keep the winter cold at bay
A cup of tea left there
To show me that you care
Unrushed and gentle grace
In this quiet, holy space
[Hook]
Quietly, we are free
Just you and me
[Verse]
Half-finished sketches lie
Beneath the amber sky
Colors bleed into blue
Reminding me of you
Nylon strings hum a low
Melody we used to know
[Pre-Chorus]
The clavichord starts to sing
Of every forgotten thing
Resting on the marble stone
I am never truly alone
[Chorus]
Small things you never say
Keep the winter cold at bay
A cup of tea left there
To show me that you care
Unrushed and gentle grace
In this quiet, holy space
[Bridge]
Years have passed us by
Without a single cry
Just the lever harp’s ring
And the peace that you bring
No words are ever needed
Love is quietly seeded
[Verse]
The felt piano is soft
Lifting our spirits aloft
No rush to find the end
My oldest, truest friend
The cor anglais sighs
Underneath the morning skies
[Chorus]
Small things you never say
Keep the winter cold at bay
A cup of tea left there
To show me that you care
Unrushed and gentle grace
In this quiet, holy space
[Post-Chorus]
The unspoken is loud
Like a silver-lined cloud
In the warmth of the sun
Now the day has begun
[Outro]
