Lyrics
Bloom
Music and lyrics by Angela Soffe
Sun coming in on the warmest breeze
Wake up beside you pretending to sleep
Daylight in particles straight from the sun
Touching our skin like a dove
I wanna know how to make it last
Gather the day, put it in my hand
Growing old with you, sounds like a song
I could sing all day long
When I'm with you
Nothing else matters
And when I'm with you
My whole winter shatters
When I'm with you
A garden fills the room
When I'm with you,
I remember how to bloom
Bloom
Bloom
Just when I notice I'm feeling small
You fly me out and above it all
Rising in open fields, sure as the rye
Coming up, brushing the sky
I don't wanna move from this dreaming place
Show me how to stay in your sweet embrace
Cuz when I'm with you
Nothing else matters
And when I'm with you
My whole winter shatters
When I'm with you
A garden fills the room
When I'm with you,
I remember how to bloom
Bloom
Bloom
