Two-Step Through the Rain (Version 2)

Verse

Windscreen wipers keeping time

Half twelve, city blurred to light

Wet tarmac like vinyl skin

Let the bassline pull me in

Left my coat under the stairs

Left my name back in the square

Every step's a broken clock

Ticking off what I forgot

Pre-Chorus

So if the floor is all I've got

Won't you keep this rhythm locked

Fill the space where I run out

This is what the night's about

Chorus

Two-step through the rain

Losing every name I claim

Hands up, let it wash away

Two-step through the rain

Chest to chest with strangers' frames

Nowhere else I'd rather stay

Two-step through the rain

Verse

Neon puddles at my feet

Every kickdrum skips a beat

Someone's shadow, someone's smoke

Ghosted faces, private jokes

Strobe light stutters like my mind

Catch it once, then lose the time

Speaker stack against my spine

Static hush and then it's mine

Pre-Chorus

So if the floor is all I've got

Won't you keep this rhythm locked

Fill the space where I run out

This is what the night's about

Chorus

Two-step through the rain

Losing every name I claim

Hands up, let it wash away

Two-step through the rain

Chest to chest with strangers' frames

Nowhere else I'd rather stay

Two-step through the rain

Bridge

Maybe I don't need a reason

Maybe lost's my favorite season

Four a.m., the sky turns grey

Still I don't want it to fade

Chorus

Two-step through the rain

Losing every name I claim

Hands up, let it wash away

Two-step through the rain

Chest to chest with strangers' frames

Nowhere else I'd rather stay

Two-step through the rain
