The Smallest Way (версия 2)

Intro

(mm)

Yeah

Verse 1

You come in every Thursday, sit two stools away

Never notice that I notice every single word you say

I learned the shape of your laugh before I learned your name

Memorized the way you hold your glass, it's always the same

I've written half a hundred things I'll never get to say

Folded into napkins that I throw away

This is the safest kind of love, the kind that doesn't ask

The kind that lives entirely in a quiet, secret task

Pre-Chorus

And maybe one day I'll find the nerve to speak

(find the nerve, find the nerve)

But tonight I'll just watch you from the corner, quiet and weak

(find the nerve, find the nerve)

Chorus

I love you in the smallest, softest way I know

A glance across the bar that never gets to grow

Into anything you'd ever notice, ever see

Just a quiet kind of keeping that belongs to only me

(mm, oh-oh)

I love you in the smallest, softest way I know

(mm, oh-oh)

A glance across the bar that never gets to grow

Verse 2

Maybe it's safer this way, loving from a little far

Maybe some affection's only meant to live inside a bar

Where nobody asks for proof, where nobody needs the end

Just a quiet kind of company that doesn't have to bend

Into something it was never built to carry, never meant to hold

I'll keep this version folded soft, I'll keep this version told

Only to the bartender, only to the dim, low light

Only to the version of you that visits me at night

Pre-Chorus

And maybe one day I'll find the nerve to speak

(find the nerve, find the nerve)

But tonight I'll just watch you from the corner, quiet and weak

(find the nerve, find the nerve)

Chorus

I love you in the smallest, softest way I know

A glance across the bar that never gets to grow

Into anything you'd ever notice, ever see

Just a quiet kind of keeping that belongs to only me

(mm, oh-oh)

I love you in the smallest, softest way I know

(mm, oh-oh)

A glance across the bar that never gets to grow

Bridge

Quiet love

(quiet love)

Soft and small

(soft and small)

Maybe never saying anything

Is its own way to say it all

Chorus

I love you in the smallest, softest way I know

A glance across the bar that never gets to grow

Into anything you'd ever notice, ever see

Just a quiet kind of keeping that belongs to only me

(mm, oh-oh)

I love you in the smallest, softest way I know

(mm, oh-oh)

A glance across the bar that never gets to grow

Outro

(mm)

Belongs to only me

Yeah
