Soft in Every Window

Verse

Steam on the kitchen window, four a.m., I'm still in bed

Sirens fade from somewhere else's block, my clock radio instead

Mm-mm-mmm, the streetlight hums like it knows me by name

Pre-Chorus

Do you feel that quiet turning gold

Every corner holds a little more

Something waking up inside these walls

Nothing left to hold onto anymore

Chorus

It's soft in every window tonight

Rain coming down but the whole street's alright

I was scared of growing up, I thought it'd mean goodbyes

But it's just the same sky wearing a different disguise

Soft in every window tonight

Warm like my hands hold light

Verse 2

Rooftop puddles turning amber as the sun breaks through

My mother hums along to something soft she hasn't heard since you left too

The porch swing creaks slow, paint's starting to chip off the frame

Still got your t-shirt draped across my desk like a promise not made

Pre-Chorus

Do you feel that quiet turning gold

Every corner holds a little more

Something waking up inside these walls

Nothing left to hold onto anymore

Chorus

It's soft in every window tonight

Rain coming down but the whole street's alright

I was scared of growing up, I thought it'd mean goodbyes

But it's just the same sky wearing a different disguise

Soft in every window tonight

Warm like my hands hold light

Bridge

Maybe growing older don't have to be hard

Maybe it's this softening, this letting go start by start

Chorus

It's soft in every window tonight

Rain coming down but the whole street's alright

I was scared of growing up, I thought it'd mean goodbyes

But it's just the same sky wearing a different disguise

Soft in every window tonight

Warm like my hands hold light
