Lyrics
Rain on the screen door
Tea in the blue mug
You kick off your shoes
I pull the curtain snug
We leave the porch light low
And fold into the day
You hum at the window
I let the gray stay
[Pre-Chorus]
We read the old letters
We nap on the couch
We share one slow story
Then laugh it back out
When the sky leans harder
We lean right too
Baby, if it keeps on falling
I’ll keep falling with you
[Chorus]
Let it rain, let it rain
Let it wash the street
Slow dance, slow dance
Right through our feet
Two-step turn, cheek to cheek
Box step in the drip
Dip me low, spin me high
Hold me by the wrist
Let it rain, let it rain
I want one more sway
If the clouds stay all day
We’ll dance them away
[Verse 2]
We make soup in the kitchen
And dry off the apples
You tie up your hair
I steal a taste and sample
We play cards in the den
With the thunder rolling soft
You cross my boots by the heater
Then you kiss my mouth off
[Pre-Chorus]
We fold up the blankets
We open the floor
You put your hand in my hand
And I ask for more
When the dark gets deeper
We don’t go inside
We just slow-drag together
With the rain as our guide
[Chorus]
Let it rain, let it rain
Let it wash the street
Slow dance, slow dance
Right through our feet
Two-step turn, cheek to cheek
Box step in the drip
Dip me low, spin me high
Hold me by the wrist
Let it rain, let it rain
I want one more sway
If the clouds stay all day
We’ll dance them away
[Bridge]
Side by side, we circle
Then slide on home
Heel-toe, little shuffle
Then we rock and roam
One slow twirl
One soft pull
Face to face
And full
[Chorus]
Let it rain, let it rain
Let it wash the street
Slow dance, slow dance
Right through our feet
Two-step turn, cheek to cheek
Box step in the drip
Dip me low, spin me high
Hold me by the wrist
Let it rain, let it rain
I want one more sway
If the clouds stay all day
We’ll dance them away
