[Verse 1]
Candles lightin' up your face, dancin' by the fireplace
Record spinnin' 'round and 'round
Lightnin' through the window, your head on the pillow
Midnight's slowin' us down
All I can think with your hands on my hips
The taste of your drink when you're kissin' my lips is
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't ever wanna stop
Don't wanna watch the clock
Let's keep it goin', goin'
[Chorus]
I kinda hope the clouds roll in
Rain slippin' through the window screen
I kinda hope the thunder comes and keeps us up
So we can't sleep
'Cause layin' here tangled up in these sheets
Is sweeter than anything I could dream
Don't wanna shut my eyes
Wanna stay up all night, together
I'm counting on the weather
I'm counting on the weather
[Verse 2]
It'll be so worth it, even if the mornin'
Sun's burnin' in our eyes
We'll just close the curtains, forget any work
And later we'll apologize
Let's drink up this moment with all that we've got
Pretend that it's stormin' even if it's not
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't ever wanna stop
Don't wanna watch the clock
Let's keep it goin', goin'
[Chorus]
I kinda hope the clouds roll in
Rain slippin' through the window screen
I kinda hope the thunder comes and keeps us up
So we can't sleep
'Cause layin' here tangled up in these sheets
Is sweeter than anything I could dream
Don't wanna shut my eyes
Wanna stay up all night, together
I'm counting on the weather
I'm counting on the weather
[Bridge]
Let it fall, let it pour
Gonna pray for more
Closer than we've ever been
[Chorus]
I kinda hope the clouds roll in
Rain slippin' through the window screen
I kinda hope the thunder comes and keeps us up
So we can't sleep, oh
'Cause layin' here tangled up in these sheets
Is sweeter than anything I could dream
Don't wanna shut my eyes
Wanna stay up all night, together
I'm counting on the weather
I'm counting on the weather, hmm
I'm counting on the weather
Oh, ooh-whoa

That song, really, for me, is the coziest on the record. I wanted to make people feel like they’re wrapped in a blanket on a couch in front of a fire. The simple things in life are sometimes just the most beautiful, and that’s what the song talks about, just using an excuse like the weather to be wi...
