[Intro - single piano chords, rain texture]
[Verse 1 - nearly a-cappella, broken]
[00:12.53]I sat down at a picnic table
[00:17.53]In another woman's clothes
[00:21.25]Everything I ever called mine
[00:24.81]Had receipts that weren't my own
[00:28.57]And my whole life came at once then
[00:32.66]Every frame of it at speed
[00:36.24]The rooms, the hands, the envelopes
[00:39.37]And me in every deed

[Verse 2 - cello enters]
[00:46.79]I always said the world had done it
[00:50.86]And the world had done its share
[00:54.54]But the rain kept running honest
[00:57.76]And I saw my own hands there
[01:01.88]I saw the yes I kept on saying
[01:04.91]I saw the money I kept
[01:08.85]And an old word rose up off the ground
[01:12.37]And I got sick, and then I wept

[Pre-Chorus - tightening]
[01:17.36]And a wanting came up bigger
[01:20.08]Than the cold or than the fear
[01:24.14]I wanted all of it off of me
[01:28.19]Every year, every year
[01:30.75]And there was only one water
[01:36.67]Anywhere near

[Chorus - breaking open, still minor]
[01:39.07]So let it rain
[01:40.99]The only thing that ever touched me free
[01:44.77]Let it rain
[01:46.35]No bill, no debt, no fee
[01:49.41]Wash me or erase me
[01:53.94]At the bottom they're the same prayer said
[01:57.60]Let it rain on every bought inch
[02:02.32]Let it rain on my head

[Bridge - toms rolling in like weather, the arrival]
[02:06.75]And then I heard it
[02:07.85]Through the water, through the dark
[02:09.75]My name, my real name
[02:12.05]Screamed across the park
[02:14.23]And a man was running, running
[02:16.19]Coat already half undone
[02:17.95]He didn't stop, he didn't slow, he didn't turn --
[02:20.87]He didn't hesitate, he came full-on

[Resolution - huge major swell, vocal cracking]
[02:26.36]And he ran through freezing rain
[02:28.24]To put a layer on
[02:42.21]He covered me, he covered me
[02:43.19]Said I've got you, I've got you
[02:48.29]And the girl who prayed to disappear
[02:50.74]Came roaring back to life right here
[02:55.04]Held together in the pouring rain
[02:58.56]By arms that wanted nothing
[03:02.86]Arms that wanted nothing
[03:06.71]Arms that wanted only me

[Final - strings full, harmonies behind]
[03:12.55]Nobody had ever covered
[03:16.43]Anything of mine for free
[03:19.21]And the rain came down like mercy
[03:22.71]And the mercy came for me
[03:26.87]Carried across the grass like glass
[03:30.37]Like something worth the load
[03:33.38]Somebody drove me home that night
[03:38.06]And home was down his road

[Outro - everything cut, whispered, rain alone]
[03:44.65]I called
[03:46.93]He came
[03:47.49]It is that simple
[03:52.30]And it has never once stopped being that enormous
