Gold in the Rain (wersja 2)

Verse

Rain came down like it always does

Same windowpane, same old cup of tea

Steam rose up past your shoulder lean

Four years gone but still feels like this

Your coat was hanging on the chair

Still smells like you, don't need to compare

I lit a candle, not for show

Just for warmth since you're already gone

Pre-Chorus

So I let the drops fall slow and slow

Let the hush come back and settle in

Maybe letting go is just the way we learn

To hold on soft when there's nothing to keep

Chorus

Gold in the rain, gold in my eyes

Every goodbye teaches me how to live

Chest still full but it feels like light

Something turning from gray into gold tonight

I used to ache at every goodbye

Used to count the seconds till you'd walk back through the door

Now I keep a candle on the sill

Just in case the rain comes through again for sure

Verse

Paperweight sits where your pen left off

Same old notebook, new pages stacked

Your handwriting bleeds right into mine

Still half of me is yours now, half mine

I walked to the park, let it wash away

Saw a girl crying over her own goodbye

Told her softly what I wish you'd said

That every tear falls soft and gets carried out to sea

Pre-Chorus

So I let the drops fall slow and slow

Let the hush come back and settle in

Maybe letting go is just the way we learn

To hold on soft when there's nothing to keep

Chorus

Gold in the rain, gold in my eyes

Every goodbye teaches me how to live

Chest still full but it feels like light

Something turning from gray into gold tonight

I used to ache at every goodbye

Used to count the seconds till you'd walk back through the door

Now I keep a candle on the sill

Just in case the rain comes through again for sure

Bridge

It's funny when you're leaving someone behind

You think the ache will swallow everything

But now I'm holding all this quiet tight

Learning love can look like letting light in

Chorus

Gold in the rain, gold in my eyes

Every goodbye teaches me how to live

Chest still full but it feels like light

Something turning from gray into gold tonight

I used to ache at every goodbye

Used to count the seconds till you'd walk back through the door

Now I keep a candle on the sill

Just in case the rain comes through again for sure
