Lyrics
Awoke to a smile
Awakening to a positive emotion or moment
From the pillow next to my own
Noticing a smile from the person in the adjacent pillow
Misty morning eyes
Describing the partner's eyes on a misty morning
Obscuring the morning light
The partner's eyes obstructing the morning light
A breeze brushes the curtains
A gentle wind moving the curtains
Of your second floor apartment
Referring to the location of the partner's apartment
I feel you slip out of bed
Sensing the partner getting out of bed
And into the day ahead
The partner starting their day
I love our little love
Expressing affection for the relationship
I love the voice you use with me
Appreciating the partner's special tone of voice
When the day is done
Referencing the end of the day
Our little love
Reiteration of affection for the relationship
Co-conspirators
Describing the couple as partners in a shared secret
Quiet confidants
Characterizing the couple as quiet and trustworthy
Everyone's got something to prove
Observation about societal pressures
In our social class where cynics rule
Commenting on cynicism prevailing in their social class
When my bitterness is bursting through
Expressing personal bitterness breaking through
It's lifted when I look to you
Finding relief by looking to the partner
Like a lake at dusk
Comparing the partner to a serene lake at dusk
Calm and blue
Emphasizing calmness and blueness
Like the stillness
Comparing the partner to the stillness of the afternoon
Of the afternoon
Highlighting a sense of tranquility
Contented being known by you
Feeling content in the partner's acknowledgment
In the comfort of a quiet truth
Finding comfort in a shared, unspoken truth
I love our little love
Reiteration of affection for the relationship
I love the voice you use with me
Appreciating the partner's special tone of voice once more
When the day is done
Referencing the end of the day again
Our little love
Reiteration of affection for the relationship
Co-conspirators
Describing the couple as partners in a shared secret once more
And quiet confidants
Characterizing the couple as quiet and trustworthy again
