Lyrics
🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤
[Verse 1]
Soft and warm, a quiet storm
Quiet as when flowers talk at break of dawn
Break of dawn
A power source of tender force
Generating, radiating, turn me on
Turn them on[Pre-Chorus]
Ah, you short-circuit all my nerves
Promising electric things
You touch me and
Suddenly there’s rainbow rings[Chorus]
Quiet storm
Blowin’ through my life
Oh, quiet storm
Blowin’ through my life
Oh, blow, baby
