Lyric

I held the words too long

Till they learned how to drown

Your name in my open phone

Still blinking in the rain

I wrote you three small lines

Then hid them in the pane

The glass kept every tremor

The room kept every stain

And now the sky is sending

What I could not say

Each drop goes down the window

Like my breath going away

Sealed in raindrops

Sealed in raindrops

Sealed in raindrops

I never sent the ache

Sealed in raindrops

Sealed in raindrops

Sealed in raindrops

Now the night can take

Your last reply was simple

Just one soft line, goodbye

I read it by the sink

With cold light in my eye

Then folded all my wanting

Into a smaller cry

And every unsent sentence

Turns silver on the pane

The storm keeps being honest

Where I keep choosing pain

Sealed in raindrops

Sealed in raindrops

Sealed in raindrops

I never sent the ache

Sealed in raindrops

Sealed in raindrops

Sealed in raindrops

Now the night can take

Maybe the wet street carries

What I could not confess

Maybe the air remembers

My almost nothingness

If you ever feel the weather

Let it speak for me instead

Sealed in raindrops

Sealed in raindrops

Sealed in raindrops

I never sent the ache

Sealed in raindrops

Sealed in raindrops

Sealed in raindrops

And I watch it break

I held the words too long

Till they learned how to drown
