[Verse 1]
Stormy weather is all I need
Clouds hang low like company
You keep asking
“Are you alright?”
I keep talking to the night
[Chorus]
You want me to be happy
But I’m walking a path of silence
Don’t you see my quiet crying
In the corners of my smile
You want me to be happy
But the rain feels like my guidance
Let me float in all this sadness
Just to rest here for a while
[Verse 2]
Coffee cold on the window sill
Phone lights up
I let it chill
You say
“Baby
Come back to me”
I’m still lost in this old grief
[Chorus]
You want me to be happy
But I’m walking a path of silence
Don’t you see my quiet crying
In the corners of my smile
You want me to be happy
But the rain feels like my guidance
Let me float in all this sadness
Just to rest here for a while
[Bridge]
I’m not pushing your love away (no, no)
I’m just learning my own name
If you hold me through the gray
I might meet you in the day (oh)
[Chorus]
You want me to be happy
But I’m walking a path of silence
Don’t you see my quiet crying
In the corners of my smile
You want me to be happy
Stay with me inside this quiet
Let the thunder say its piece now
Then I’ll trust the sun a while
