Lovers Speak
Joan Armatrading Lyrics

When they whisper in the corner
When lovers whisper to each other in secret, out of earshot from others.

When they're running in the rain
When lovers run in the rain, enjoying the thrill of each other's company and not letting anything dampen their spirits.

When they're holding hands and laughing
When lovers hold hands and laugh, sharing a moment of joy and connection that is unique to them.
