Dancing in the rain

You say you’re happy, I can see it in your smile

But I can’t help wondering if it’s real all the while

Does he know the way you laugh when you’re nervous in a crowd?

Or how you hum a little tune when the world gets too loud?

I’d give anything to have a chance

To pull you close, take your hand

Show you a life you’ve only dreamed of

A love worth every risk

I wanna dance in the headlights in the rain

Spin you around ‘til we’re lost in the pain

Of knowing you’re his, but dreaming you’re mine

Under these stars, we’re running out of time

I wanna watch the world from a parking garage

Cook in the kitchen like it’s all we’ve got

But you’re holding him while I’m holding on

To a love that’s here, but feels so far gone

You talk about him like he’s your whole world

And I just nod, but inside, it hurts

’Cause I’d take you higher than the tallest skyline

Let you see what it’s like to finally feel alive

If only you’d look my way

See the words I’m scared to say

I’d light up your nights, chase your fears away

But you’re walking the wrong road

I wanna dance in the headlights in the rain

Spin you around ‘til we’re lost in the pain

Of knowing you’re his, but dreaming you’re mine

Under these stars, we’re running out of time

I wanna watch the world from a parking garage

Cook in the kitchen like it’s all we’ve got

But you’re holding him while I’m holding on

To a love that’s here, but feels so far gone

And maybe someday, you’ll see what I see

The way you light up the dark inside of me

But until then, I’ll stand in the rain

Praying for the day you call my name

I wanna dance in the headlights in the rain

Spin you around ‘til we’re lost in the pain

Of knowing you’re his, but dreaming you’re mine

Under these stars, we’re running out of time

I wanna watch the world from a parking garage

Cook in the kitchen like it’s all we’ve got

But you’re holding him while I’m holding on

To a love that’s here, but feels so far gone

I’ll wait in the shadows, I’ll wait in the rain

Hoping you’ll see me, call out my name

But until then, I’ll just dream you’re mine

Under the stars, lost in borrowed time.
