Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I pulled up slow in the gravel
With the windshield cussin' rain
My boots hit mud at your porch step
And I left my pride in the lane
My shirt's gone dark at the shoulders
My hands won't stop their shake
I came here broke open honest
With too much truth to fake
[Pre-Chorus]
If you look close, you'll see it
No polish on my face
I'm tired of lookin' half-made
And callin' that a place
[Chorus]
Heart on my sleeve
Tears in my eyes
(heart on my sleeve)
I came to you alive
Heart on my sleeve
Standin' in the rain
(heart on my sleeve)
Show me you feel the same
[Verse 2]
There's a crack in every story
I tried to smooth it out
But I'm done with actin' fine, love
When the whole house is doubt
So if my voice comes out shaky
If my knees won't hold tonight
It's just me with the curtain open
Tryin' to step into your light
[Pre-Chorus]
If you look close, you'll see it
No polish on my face
I'm tired of lookin' half-made
And callin' that a place
[Chorus]
Heart on my sleeve
Tears in my eyes
(heart on my sleeve)
I came to you alive
Heart on my sleeve
Standin' in the rain
(heart on my sleeve)
Show me you feel the same
[Bridge]
Let the thunder say what it wants
Let it shake this old world frame
If I'm gonna be yours, baby
You can have me with my name
No more hidin' in the shadows
No more need to look so strong
If you want the real me, darlin'
I've been standin' here all along
[Final Chorus]
Heart on my sleeve
Tears in my eyes
(heart on my sleeve)
I came to you alive
Heart on my sleeve
Standin' in the rain
(heart on my sleeve)
Show me you feel the same
Heart on my sleeve
Don't turn away
(heart on my sleeve)
I'm yours if you'll stay

Country ballad with a slow two-step sway and distant thunder rolls, fingerpicked acoustic guitar, brushed snare, steel guitar sighs, and a low piano bed under the chorus. Verse stays close and sparse; pre-chorus lifts with rising harmony; chorus opens wide with stacked male vocals and a soaring third above. Lightning-crack transitions, rain-slick percussion, and a final key change. Male vocals with warm lead and gentle harmony doubles, intimate and raw, bright yet weathered mix., harmony, country

Country, thunder in the background, I’m standing here in the rain with my heart on my sleeve and tears in my eyes trying to show you the real me, male with some harmony
