Half-Asleep in the Rain

Verse

Gray light leaks through the blinds like tea

Steam off the mug you left for me

Radiator ticks a slow heartbeat

Socks on the floor, cold on my feet

Rain on the sill, soft as a hush

Streetlamp fading in the not-quite-dusk

Your hair's a shadow on the pillow case

Half a smile still on your face

Pre-Chorus

Do we have to move

Do we have to wake

Five more minutes

Is all it takes

Chorus

Half-asleep in the rain

Nowhere we're supposed to be

Half-asleep in the rain

Just the quiet and you and me

Clock hands barely creep

We're stitched in the in-between

Half-asleep in the rain

Verse

Coffee's going cold, we don't mind

Blanket's tangled, we're intertwined

A car goes by with its headlights low

Paints the ceiling, then lets it go

The window fogs where our breath meets

Traffic hums three floors beneath

Nothing's loud, nothing's due

Just this gray, just this blue

Pre-Chorus

Do we have to move

Do we have to wake

Five more minutes

Is all it takes

Chorus

Half-asleep in the rain

Nowhere we're supposed to be

Half-asleep in the rain

Just the quiet and you and me

Clock hands barely creep

We're stitched in the in-between

Half-asleep in the rain

Bridge

Someday there'll be somewhere to run

Deadlines waiting, work undone

But right now the world can keep

Right now we're only half-asleep

Chorus

Half-asleep in the rain

Nowhere we're supposed to be

Half-asleep in the rain

Just the quiet and you and me

Clock hands barely creep

We're stitched in the in-between

Half-asleep in the rain
