Rain on the Striped Green Awning

[Intro] [Rain Patter on Canvas & Jazz Chords] Patter, drum, patter, drum on the green awning A rainy afternoon with no one calling [Verse 1] [Noah & Melody Alternating] [Noah] Dark green canvas shaking in the silence [Melody] Inside the cafe dry and safe and warm [Noah] Water streams cascading from the metal frame [Melody] Whispering each other's tender name [Both] Two steaming cups of dark espresso blend Sitting by the window with my dearest friend [Pre-Chorus] [Upright Bass & Brush Cymbal] Puddles rippling on the cobblestone We are no longer out there all alone [Chorus] [Cozy Rainy Jazz-Hop Drop] Heavy raindrops drumming on the canvas awning A shelter from the cold and stormy yawning Behind the steamed-up window glass Watching the yellow taxis pass Listen, rest, to the rainy sound Best little sanctuary in the town [Verse 2] [Piano Solo & Duet Vocal] [Melody] Your hand warms up on the ceramic glaze [Noah] Savoring these peaceful, rainy days [Both] The barista turns the jazz record round Adding beauty to the rainy sound [Bridge] [Grand Piano Solo & Duet Harmonies] Oh, let the clouds pour down until the night We are surrounded by the amber light Rain on canvas, coffee in the cup Every single worry is swallowed up [Chorus] [Full Warm Rainy Climax] Heavy raindrops drumming on the canvas awning A shelter from the cold and stormy yawning Behind the steamed-up window glass Watching the yellow taxis pass Listen, rest, to the rainy sound Best little sanctuary in the town [Outro] [Rain on Canvas & Teaspoon Clink] Green striped awning... Rainy refuge. [Fade Out] [End]
