歌詞

Rain bent my umbrella kindly

Like it knew my name

I held the crooked handle

And walked home anyway

One side to the storm

One side to my coat

It did not fix the weather

It just helped me make it through

You said, keep it close

Even if it leans

Small things still can shelter

Small things still can mean

Rain bent my umbrella kindly

I kept it anyway

Rain bent my umbrella kindly

Just to face the day

A little crooked cover

A little worn and true

Rain bent my umbrella kindly

And I kept it for you

Now it waits by the doorframe

With a scar in the spine

Like a quiet little witness

To the worst of my time

I don't call it beautiful

But I know what it did

When the sky came down hard

It held on like I did

You said, keep it close

Even if it leans

Small things still can shelter

Small things still can mean

Rain bent my umbrella kindly

I kept it anyway

Rain bent my umbrella kindly

Just to face the day

A little crooked cover

A little worn and true

Rain bent my umbrella kindly

And I kept it for you

If the storm comes back

I won't need it to be new

I just need one small promise

To get me back to you

Let it bow, let it bruise

Let the rain have its say

Some protection is just

Staying with me all the way

Rain bent my umbrella kindly

I kept it anyway

Rain bent my umbrella kindly

Just to face the day

A little crooked cover

A little worn and true

Rain bent my umbrella kindly

And I kept it for you
