Lyrics
Rain on the glass like a soft drum roll Blanket on my shoulders, nowhere to go Steam from the mug curling up in the light Cocoa in my hands and the whole world feels right Corner cafe with the fogged-up pane Watching all the umbrellas dance down the lane No rush, no clock, no one's calling my name Just a window seat and a slow day rain Let it pour, let it fall I've got everything I need, that's all Cocoa and a window seat Rain on the roof keeping time with my heartbeat Cocoa and a window seat Warm hands, warm heart, nothing to compete Slow down, slow down, life is sweet Cocoa and a window seat You slide in beside me with your cheeks all pink Cold fingers finding mine, no need to think Marshmallows melting in a slow swirl Whispering secrets in a quiet world Streetlights flicker on as the afternoon fades Gold on the puddles, soft purple shades Your head on my shoulder, my arm round you Some days all you need is a view for two Let it pour, let it fall I've got everything I need, that's all Cocoa and a window seat Rain on the roof keeping time with my heartbeat Cocoa and a window seat Warm hands, warm heart, nothing to compete Slow down, slow down, life is sweet Cocoa and a window seat Somewhere out there the world is rushing by But in here we're soft and the hours drift high Pour another cup, let the evening stay Nothing needs to happen on a day this way Waiter turns the lights down low Candle on the table with a flickering glow Rain keeps humming its lullaby We don't need to say it, you and I Cocoa and a window seat Rain on the roof keeping time with my heartbeat Cocoa and a window seat Warm hands, warm heart, nothing to compete Slow down, slow down, life is sweet Cocoa and a window seat Rain on the glass, slow and sweet Cocoa and a window seat
