Still Standing in the Rain

Verse

Bicycle spokes ticking gravel and gold

Sixteen years old and the whole town on hold

Popsicle sticks stacked up under the porch

We lit up the dusk with a citronella torch

Pre-Chorus

And the thunder rolled in from the ridge

Every kid ran for the bridge

But something in me wouldn't budge

I stayed right there in the mud

Chorus

Still standing in the rain

Barefoot, laughing, calling out your name

Soaked to the bone but nothing's changed

We're still standing in the rain

Verse

Radio crackling, backseat of a truck

Windows fogged up, we're pushing our luck

Corn fields blur into a green kind of blue

Nineteen and reckless, but the sky is too

Pre-Chorus

And the thunder rolled in from the ridge

Every kid ran for the bridge

But something in me wouldn't budge

I stayed right there in the mud

Chorus

Still standing in the rain

Barefoot, laughing, calling out your name

Soaked to the bone but nothing's changed

We're still standing in the rain

Bridge

Now the fields are sold, and the porch light's gone

But I hear that thunder in every song

And some nights I swear I can taste July

Salt and rainwater, your hand in mine

Chorus

Still standing in the rain

Older now but I'd do it all again

Soaked to the bone, wearing summer like a stain

We're still standing in the rain

Still standing in the rain
