Stay Until It Rains

You found my jacket on your bedroom floor

Said

"You always leave before it gets too warm"

Laughing like you didn't mean a word you said

But your eyes gave you away instead

I know the way that I push you back

Is the same way I’m begging you to hold me

Every time that we fade to black

You’re the only one who ever really knows me

So stay until it rains

Till the sky runs out of ways to hold it in

Stay until it rains

Let it fall like every secret on our skin

If we break in the morning

Let it be that way

Just promise me one thing

Stay until it rains (oh, stay)

You trace the cracks that run across my hands

Say

"You’ve carried every battle that you never planned"

I joke about the scars like they’re a souvenir

But you touch them like a prayer you keep me near

I keep my heart in a paper box

Folded up

Always ready for the leaving

You keep the key with your tangled locks

And you hand it back every time I stop believing

So stay until it rains

Till the sky runs out of ways to hold it in

Stay until it rains

Let it fall like every secret on our skin

If we break in the morning

Let it be that way

Just promise me one thing

Stay until it rains (oh, stay)

Maybe we’re just two tired hearts

Learning how to beat in the dark

But when your head finds my shoulder

The world gets a little bit slower (yeah)

If this is all we ever are

One long night

One borrowed star

I’ll take the ache

I’ll take the pain

If you just stay

Stay until it rains

Till the sky runs out of ways to hold it in

Stay until it rains

Let it fall like every secret on our skin

If we break in the morning

Let it be that way

Just promise me one thing

Stay until it rains

Stay until it rains (oh, stay)
