Beneath the Rain (version 2)

Verse

Cold on the collarbone, dew on the floor

Night's last hour leaning on the door

Fingers stiff from holding on the beat

Warmth climbs slow from your ankles to your feet

Nape goes tight where the bassline used to press

Skin remembers what the dark can't confess

Goosebumps rise like the room holds its breath

Waiting on the light to loosen what is left

Pre-Chorus

Let the cold slide off your arms

Let the hush undo the calm

Something warm is climbing through

Skin knows before you do

Chorus

Skin meets sunrise

Open, unfold

Skin meets sunrise

Let go of cold

Skin meets sunrise

Rising slow

Skin meets sunrise

This is how you know

Verse

Wrist still humming where the pulse ran fast

Temple damp with the weight of the last

Palms turn upward, catch the amber thread

Light moves warm from your chest to your head

Shoulders drop where the tension used to live

Skin stretches wide, learns how to give

Every pore keeping time with the sun

Body softening, the night is done

Pre-Chorus

Let the cold slide off your arms

Let the hush undo the calm

Something warm is climbing through

Skin knows before you do

Chorus

Skin meets sunrise

Open, unfold

Skin meets sunrise

Let go of cold

Skin meets sunrise

Rising slow

Skin meets sunrise

This is how you know

Bridge

Hand finds hand where the light comes through

Warmth we made now returned to you

Skin holds skin, no need for words

Sunrise moves like a slow held chord

Chorus

Skin meets sunrise

Open, unfold

Skin meets sunrise

Let go of cold

Skin meets sunrise

Rising slow

Skin meets sunrise

This is how you know
