Lyrics
Maybe it's the weather
maybe it's the way you smiled
but everything I'm wearing
looks better outside
I changed my shirt twice
and still felt like staying home
standing by the doorway
with my hand on the lock
You said the day was waiting
but not in a serious way
more like a song starting
before we knew the words
So I came out with my hair
doing whatever it wanted
and my jacket hanging wrong
on one side
You looked at me
like that was part of the picture
so I stopped fixing it
for the first time
Maybe the room
was making me smaller
maybe the walls
had heard too much
Maybe I just needed
the street for a minute
and your shoulder
close enough to touch
It looks better outside
when the wind gets into it
My ordinary day
gets a little bit of music
It looks better outside
when I'm walking next to you
Nothing really changed
but it changes the view
I don't need a perfect place
or a better kind of life
Some things only make sense
when they're moving outside
We bought a drink
from a shop with a handwritten menu
and took too long
deciding where to go
There was a couple laughing too loud
near the crossing
and a kid chasing pigeons
like he owned the road
You said my shoes looked better
when I wasn't posing
so I took one bad picture
and kept it anyway
The whole afternoon leaned
slightly out of focus
but somehow that made it feel
more like a memory
Maybe the plan
was never the point
maybe the point
was getting dressed
Maybe I just needed
one small reason
to leave
the rest
It looks better outside
when the wind gets into it
My ordinary day
gets a little bit of music
It looks better outside
when I'm walking next to you
Nothing really changed
but it changes the view
I don't need a perfect place
or a better kind of life
Some things only make sense
when they're moving outside
Outside the door
outside my head
outside the mood
I almost kept
Outside the version
I overdesigned
there you are laughing
and I'm alright
Not because the day got better
not because the sky turned kind
Maybe I just look more like myself
when I stop standing still inside
It looks better outside
when the wind gets into it
My ordinary day
gets a little bit of music
It looks better outside
when I'm walking next to you
Nothing really changed
but it changes the view
I don't need a perfect place
or a better kind of life
Some things only make sense
when they're moving outside
It looks better outside
yeah, it looks better outside
Maybe it's the weather
maybe it's the way you smiled
but everything I'm wearing
looks better outside
