Storm
Paperwhite Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time pulls me further, hard to breathe
But harder to love
Time finds another waiting to see
If it's coming for us
But when the light falls upon the water
Showing me that we have this love to fight for
And all the clouds need these days to trust you
I'm afraid the fall couldn't get much higher

When the storm comes right above us
Let the trust that you'll keep me undercover
When the rain starts to drag us under
Promise me that we'll fight on together

Uuh uuh uuh uh
Till the storm is over
Uuh uuh uuh uh
Till the storm is over

Come back and wonder why we believed
We could be stopped?
'Cause we have each other, it's never easy
But it's right for us
'Cause when the light falls upon the water
Showing me that we have this love to fight for
And all the clouds need these days to trust you
I'm afraid the fall couldn't get much higher

When the storm comes right above us
Let the trust that you'll keep me undercover
When the rain starts to drag us under
Promise me that we'll fight on together

Uuh uuh uuh uh
Till the storm is over




Uuh uuh uuh uh
Till the storm is over

[Verse 1]
Time pulls me farther
Hard to breath but harder to love
Time finds another
Waiting to see if its coming for us

[Pre-Chorus]
But when the light falls upon the water
Showing me that we’ve got this love to fight for
And though the climb gives me space to trust ya
I’m afraid the fall couldn’t get much higher

[Chorus]
When the storm clouds are right above us
Lightning strikes but you keep me under cover
When the rain starts to drag us under
Promise me that we’ll fight on together
Until the storm is over

[Verse 2]
Come back and wonder
Why we believed we could be stopped
Cause we had each other
Its never easy but it’s right for us

[Pre-Chorus]
Cause when the light falls upon the water
Showing me that we’ve got this love to fight for
And though the climb give me space to trust ya
I’m afraid the fall couldn’t get much higher

[Chorus]
When the storm clouds are right above us
Lightning strikes but you keep me under cover
When the rain starts to drag us under
Promise me that we’ll fight on together
Until the storm is over

Shazamed your song while drinking Bloody Mary's at a beach pier restaurant in Edisto Island, SC. Spring Break! This song became our chill song at the end of each night at the condo. Such a great song! New fan here!
