  • Pitter-patter pitter-patter ....
    Pitter-patter pitter-patter ....

    One drop of rain on your window pane
    Doesn't mean to say there's a thunderstorm comin'
    Rain may pour for an hour or more
    But it doesn't matter, you know it doesn't matter

    One gentle breeze blowin' softly through the trees
    Doesn't mean to say there's a hurricane hummin'
    Don't go running ev'ry time you hear it coming
    It doesn't matter, you know it doesn't matter

    One little word that you may have overheard
    Doesn't mean to say that my love for you is dyin'
    Don't go cryin' over second hand lyin'
    'Cause it doesn't matter, you know it doesn't matter

    It's a storm in a teacup
    Brewing up double all those tiny little troubles
    A storm in a teacup
    It really doesn't matter
    If it pitter-pitter-patters all the day

    Pidder-padder pidder-padder ....
    It doesn't matter, no no it doesn't matter

    One little word that you may have overheard
    Doesn't mean to say that my love for you is dyin'
    So don't start cryin' over second hand lyin'
    'Cause it doesn't matter, you know it doesn't matter

    It's a storm in a teacup
    Brewing up double all those tiny little troubles
    Storm in a teacup
    It really doesn't matter
    If it pitter-pitter-patters all the day

    Pitter-patter pitter-patter ....
    It's a storm in a teacup
    Brewing up double all those tiny little troubles
    Storm in a teacup
    It really doesn't matter
    If it pitter-pitter-patters all the day Writer/s: Lyndsey De Paul, Ron Roker
