Lyric

I find myself repeating things you say

The way you speak, it colors every day

Your voice, so calm, it never needs to rush

I’m calming down within your gentle hush

I used to watch you from so far away

As you gave your smile to brighten up their day

But now I find, without even a sign

I’m breathing in a rhythm just like thine

The shape of warmth has changed, I see

Because of you, it’s flowing through of me

Reaching out to places I couldn't touch before

Becoming clear, like an open door

The shape of warmth is how I trace the world

Like a secret banner, softly now unfurled

Before the words, it stretches far and wide

This softness, it’s your gift that lives inside

Passing by a stranger on the street

I match my pace to keep a steady beat

A little change, no one else can see

But it takes the heavy burden off of me

The man I was, with eyes like sudden rain

Looking for the sorrow and the pain

Now I just watch them as they walk on by

And take a longer look up at the sky

[Chorus]

The shape of warmth, you taught me on that day

Hearing other voices in a brand new way

Everything is turning shades of light

Living in the stillness, calm and bright

The shape of warmth, if I could hold it near

To wrap someone in silence, free of fear

It’s the memory of you, the light I keep

Burning in the distance, soft and deep

A "thank you" that I never could express

Fades away whenever I try to confess

So today, I’ll pass the warmth along

Hoping that I’m singing the right song (Oh)

The shape of warmth has changed, I see

Because of you, it’s flowing through of me

Don’t blame the past, it’s time to let it be

Quietly forgiving, I am finally free

The shape of warmth is how I trace the world

Like a secret banner, softly now unfurled

From you to me, and me to someone new

This chain of softness, growing all for you (La la la)
