Rain on the Latch (version 2)

Intro

Rain on the latch...

Washing through my chest...

Verse 1

Fingers trace the windowpane

Water running down like a refrain

Sweat and salt and the hum of light

Nothing holding me from this night

Every breath feels like a door swings open

Every sound is something breaking free

Pre-Chorus

I let it go, I let it fall

Let the weight just slide out of all...

Something old comes floating up

Watched it sink beneath us both

Chorus

Rain on the latch, washing through my chest

Washing clean everything that I was left behind

Falling soft like a forgiveness spell

Raining down and nothing is still

I let go with an open heart

Every drop feels brand new from the start

Rain on the latch, falling slow

Nothing to hold me, nowhere to go

Verse 2

Drenched shirt clinging to my skin

Salt from tears mixed in again

The whole town sleeping below the grey

Me and nothing holding me back today

Every heartbeat is a drumbeat now

Every drop lands soft on the ground

I used to chase the shadows out

Now I'm dancing right inside this rain without a sound

Pre-Chorus

I let it go, I let it fall

Let the weight just slide out of all...

Something old comes floating up

Watched it sink beneath us both

Chorus

Rain on the latch, washing through my chest

Washing clean everything that I was left behind

Falling soft like a forgiveness spell

Raining down and nothing is still

I let go with an open heart

Every drop feels brand new from the start

Rain on the latch, falling slow

Nothing to hold me, nowhere to go

Bridge

Maybe falling's just another name for peace

For the quiet that comes after release

No roof left to shield my soul tonight

Just water running down and shining bright

I was carrying something I no longer need

Watch it float beneath me like a river of gold and lead

Letting go feels like coming home at last

This is the falling, this is the letting go at last

Chorus

Rain on the latch, washing through my chest

Washing clean everything that I was left behind

Falling soft like a forgiveness spell

Raining down and nothing is still

I let go with an open heart

Every drop feels brand new from the start

Rain on the latch, falling slow

Nothing to hold me, nowhere to go
