Lyric

Standing in the drizzle, shivering in the cold

No umbrella in your hand, a story left untold

Where did it go? That sweet and friendly grace?

You won’t even look at me, you’ve turned away your face

Is there a distance now that I can’t erase?

You’re gonna catch a cold, I’m worried for your sake

I offered you my shelter, for every breath we take

But you won’t reach out, you won’t take the shade

Watching as the promises we whispered start to fade

Ah—

It’s a hollow kind of lonely, even though you’re here

Like I’m standing by myself, drowning in my fear

Say something to me, the silence is a blade

But I’m staying right beside you, I won’t be swayed

That’s the only truth that I’ve ever made

Ah—

The sky is opening up, the rain is coming fast

Can I hold you one more time? Can we make this moment last?

Your face is turning red, flushed with all the pain

Tears are starting to overflow, mixing with the rain

I felt it in my bones, the shadow of the end

I was happy just to love you, more than just a friend

The warmth of our history, the love I’m holding tight

I don’t want to hurt you, I don’t want to fight

I’ll let you go before the morning light

Everything we were is a treasure in my chest

The way you finally said goodbye, putting us to rest

Even the tears you cried, I’ll keep them as a prize

Underneath the weeping of these grey and heavy skies

Ah—

Now you’ve walked away, vanished in the mist

Leaving only shadows of the lips that I once kissed

My umbrella’s at my feet, abandoned on the floor

The only thing that’s left of us, since you walked out the door

I’m hugging the ghost of you, the scent you left behind

I love you... god, I love you
