(Verse 1) You hop a little rhythm into all my mundane fears. Sunlight writes your silhouette on the hardwood floor, I play a little riff, and you come asking for more. That twitch of a nose like a question I donāt have to answer, You rearrange my calm like a morning-time dancer. (Chorus) Oh, cotton-tailed smile, you make the little things worthwhile, One soft shuffle, you steal my blue and make it mild. You donāt try to be perfect, you arrive and stay awhile, Rabbit in my lap, you wear my quiet like a smile. (Verse 2) You hop through my coffee steam, a tiny, reckless poet, Every careless bound is a lesson that I almost know. You nibble at the edges of a day thatās worn and loud, Turn it into hush and a small, sacred cloud. I trace the hush of your breath like a metronome in time, A slow, honest pulse that keeps me in line. (Pre-Chorus) No need for speeches, no rehearsed alibis, You teach me how to live in the crease of simple skies. (Chorus) Oh, cotton-tailed smile, you make the little things worthwhile, One soft shuffle, you steal my blue and make it mild. You donāt try to be perfect, you arrive and stay awhile, Rabbit in my lap, you wear my quiet like a smile. (Bridge) Let me borrow your smallness for a minute, let it sink in, Thereās a kind of holiness in the ordinary, tucked beneath your chin. If lifeās a loud affair, youāre a secret I can keep, A pocket full of calm when the cityās grinding sleep. (Chorus) Oh, cotton-tailed smile, you make the little things worthwhile, One soft shuffle, you steal my blue and make it mild. You donāt try to be perfect, you arrive and stay awhile, Rabbit in my lap, you wear my quiet like a smile. Quiet like a smile
