Walking in the Rain

Verse

Hood up

Face down

Raindrops racing tears now

Puddles where we used to slow dance on the way out

Same street

Different me

Broken like your key on my key ring

You left it on the counter, said you "need to learn to be free"

Four years

Two moves

Your mug, my shoes

Handwritten notes on the fridge, all your good morning news

Your laugh in the stairwell

Your brush in my sink

Now it’s just echoes and empties

Too much time left to think

Chorus

I’m just walking in the rain, where we used to hold hands

Talking to the ghosts of our old plans

Every drop on my face feels like your name

You’re gone, but it all looks the same

I’m just walking in the rain till my shoes soak through

Tracing every memory that leads back to you

If you ever see me, don’t look away

I’m the storm that you made on a sunny day (yeah)

Verse

Remember that cheap couch, springs poking our backs

We said, when we "make it," we’d laugh about that

Birthday cake in November, you burned both our names

We scraped off the black parts, said "perfect’s so plain"

Met your mom on a Tuesday, you squeezed my hand tight

Said I was "it" when we walked home that night

Now it’s your last text pinned, and it cuts like glass

"Maybe we grew apart" — you just grew up so fast

You moved all your sweaters, left dust, left air

Left one bobby pin tangled up in my chair

I keep finding your hair in the folds of my clothes

These little reminders won’t let me let go (nah)

Chorus

I’m just walking in the rain, where we used to hold hands

Talking to the ghosts of our old plans

Every drop on my face feels like your name

You’re gone, but it all looks the same

I’m just walking in the rain till my shoes soak through

Tracing every memory that leads back to you

If you ever see me, don’t look away

I’m the storm that you made on a sunny day

Bridge

How do I erase

The coffee shop corner, your sleepy face

The airport goodbyes you turned into jokes

The way you’d steal all my hoodies and coats

If time is a healer

Why’s every minute colder, realer

You took the sun when you walked off my street

Left me alone with the sound of my feet (just my feet)

Chorus

I’m just walking in the rain, where we used to hold hands

Talking to the ghosts of our old plans

Every drop on my face feels like your name

You’re gone, but it all looks the same

I’m just walking in the rain till my heart says "quit"

But it keeps replaying every little bit

If you ever miss me, don’t be afraid

You know where to find me

In our yesterday’s rain
