[Intro – instrumental. (Gentle distorted guitars, soft cymbal taps, subtle bass pulse, building)]
Aaaahh
[Verse 1]
Cold red sunsets
Freeze the colors out
Standing in the drizzle
I’ve been thinking how
My days feel lighter
Since you came
Kicking at puddles
Mouthing your name
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh yeah,
And I don’t mind the rain
Or the clouds that hang
As long as you’re here
I can feel it all again
[Chorus]
It’s still raining
But who’s complaining
Long as you’re near
I don’t mind
Clouds keep breaking
My hands keep shaking
You pull me back inside
It’s still raining
But who’s complaining
Storm runs off your crown
If this weather’s forever
I think I’ll stick around...
I'll stick around...
[Verse 2]
Wet sidewalks shine
Satin air on my shoulders
Soft as your sighs
Colors bleed from billboards
Into the drain
Streetlights smear on windshields
Spell out your name
[Pre-Chorus]
Ohhh,
And I don’t mind the rain
Or the clouds that hang
As long as you’re here
I can feel it all again
[Chorus]
It’s still raining
But who’s complaining
Long as you’re near
I don’t mind
Clouds keep breaking
My hands keep shaking
You pull me back inside
It’s still raining
But who’s complaining
Storm runs off your crown
If this weather’s forever
I think I’ll stick around...
I'll stick around...
[Bridge – spoken/low nasally register]
Gutters overflowing
Sparks on the road
Young hearts laughing in the downpour
Mascara runs
I’ve been thinking
I’ve been drinking
What I don’t say out loud
If the sky falls…
Let it fall now
Oh-oh-oh...
You got me anyhow
*(Whispered echo) You got me anyhow…
[Chorus – big, emotional lift]
Aaaahh,
It’s still raining
But who’s complaining
Long as you’re near
I don’t mind
Clouds keep breaking
My hands keep shaking
You pull me back inside
Oh,
It’s still raining
But who’s complaining
Storm runs off your crown
If this weather’s forever
I think I’ll stick around
Aaaahh
[Outro – instrumental fade]
*(Echoes of )"It’s still raining, but Who’s complaining…”
Oh-yeah
[Soft distorted guitars, fading cymbals, distant bass heartbeat]
Oh-oh-oh
Mm-mm
