Quiet Lightning

[Verse 1]
Your hand on my sleeve
Like a spark in rain
You don't say much
Still you rearrange

The room gets thin
When you look my way
My chest goes warm
I don't look away

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know
I know what it means
When the dark starts crackling
Under my skin

[Chorus]
Quiet lightning
I can feel the light inside
Quiet lightning
It keeps me open wide
Quiet lightning
You pull the storm apart
(Quiet lightning)
And wake my heart

[Verse 2]
I kept my secrets
In a paper box
You came by slow
And you picked the lock

Now every fear
Falls soft and small
Like old dust dropping
From the wall

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know
I know what you do
One soft touch
And I come into view

[Chorus]
Quiet lightning
I can feel the light inside
Quiet lightning
It keeps me open wide
Quiet lightning
You pull the storm apart
(Quiet lightning)
And wake my heart

[Bridge]
If I go numb
You find the seam
If I go cold
You bring back heat

No grand parade
No burning sky
Just your calm hand
And my whole life

[Final Chorus]
Quiet lightning
I can feel the light inside
Quiet lightning
It keeps me open wide
Quiet lightning
You pull the storm apart
(Quiet lightning)
And wake my heart
