lyrics

19, fair and strawberry haired, she’s got on her favorite rain boots
the weather isn’t fitting of her warmth emitting thank you’s
swore she was pretty well before I had ever told her
the two of us should intersect now before we are too much older

please don’t you knock down my door
because my mom might wake up
let’s break rules and skip weeks of school
and claim no one can make us
the nimbus clouds will downpour in
celebration of our rain love
we’ll do the rain dance all night long
until the second great flood

clothes are drenched, my hair is flat, we both set out to get mops
tides rise to heights too high, about time to peel off wet socks
she’ll always be right by my side and she’s sure i know this
maybe it’d be fun for two of us to become one, trying out mitosis

the downpour turned my windshield into a waterfall today
quickly passing under a bridge while driving on the interstate
the pitter patter equivalent of driving 'neath the delaware
windshield wipers struggling to wipe away the rain that isn’t there

please don’t you knock down my door
because my mom might wake up
let’s break the rules, skip weeks of school
and claim no one can make us
the nimbus clouds will downpour in
celebration of our rain love
we’ll do the rain dance all night long
until the second great flood
