Pitch Dark
Pouring rain, loud thunderstorm
Ran fast, struggled through the door
You said, "It's really something out there"
I gave you a shy smile and brushed the moment away
Like I brushed the rain off my coat
And as I turn to go, you said, "Your hair looks good wet"
I say, "You should see it dry"
I looked up and I met your eyes
And the electricity pulsed through the room like the lightning outside
Well, I should've known then by the look in your eyes
It was gonna be a long night
I don't know what makes people fall in love
Well, it seems to be nothing, oddly enough
Maybe it's paying attention to detail
Maybe it's just showing up
Maybe it's whatever starts a spark in the pitch dark
8 p.m. the smell of the coffee
Never seen the corner shop this busy
I guess everyone's here, 'cause the power's out at home
And I normally wouldn't talk to strangers
But I'm stuck in a booth with you and I don't mind it, kinda like it
I nervously chew on my straw while a guy in the corner plays a song
About a couple who fell in love, unexpectedly
I don't know what makes people fall in love
Well, it seems to be nothing, oddly enough
Maybe it's paying attention to detail
Maybe it's just showing up
Maybe it's whatever starts a spark in the pitch dark
I don't know what makes people fall in love
Well, it seems to be nothing, oddly enough
Maybe it's paying attention to detail
Maybe it's just showing up
Maybe it's whatever starts a spark in the pitch dark
You go to the counter to order another cup
Things are getting to be a little much
So I write my name and number on a napkin
and slide it under your drink
And slip out of the side door, back into the rain
Ran fast, struggled through the door
You said, "It's really something out there"
I gave you a shy smile and brushed the moment away
Like I brushed the rain off my coat
And as I turn to go, you said, "Your hair looks good wet"
I say, "You should see it dry"
I looked up and I met your eyes
And the electricity pulsed through the room like the lightning outside
Well, I should've known then by the look in your eyes
It was gonna be a long night
I don't know what makes people fall in love
Well, it seems to be nothing, oddly enough
Maybe it's paying attention to detail
Maybe it's just showing up
Maybe it's whatever starts a spark in the pitch dark
8 p.m. the smell of the coffee
Never seen the corner shop this busy
I guess everyone's here, 'cause the power's out at home
And I normally wouldn't talk to strangers
But I'm stuck in a booth with you and I don't mind it, kinda like it
I nervously chew on my straw while a guy in the corner plays a song
About a couple who fell in love, unexpectedly
I don't know what makes people fall in love
Well, it seems to be nothing, oddly enough
Maybe it's paying attention to detail
Maybe it's just showing up
Maybe it's whatever starts a spark in the pitch dark
I don't know what makes people fall in love
Well, it seems to be nothing, oddly enough
Maybe it's paying attention to detail
Maybe it's just showing up
Maybe it's whatever starts a spark in the pitch dark
You go to the counter to order another cup
Things are getting to be a little much
So I write my name and number on a napkin
and slide it under your drink
And slip out of the side door, back into the rain
