Sin in the Rain

(ooooh) The rain came down like a warning,

Cold against my skin.

I heard your voice through the thunder,

Whispering, let me in.

I knew the door was forbidden,

I knew the price was high.

But there was something in the darkness That made me want to

try.

And every drop became a confession,

Every breath became a lie.

I could feel the heavens watching

As I stepped across the line.

Let it rain, let it wash me,

Let the storm take what I hide.

If loving you is my religion,

Then I'll sin tonight.

Let it pour over my shoulders,

Let the lightning split the sky.

I don't need to be forgiven

If I'm yours when I die.

Your shadow moved across the window,

Like a ghost I couldn't lose.

There were roses on the pavement,

Blackened underneath my shoes.

I tasted something bitter

When you whispered out my name.

Maybe Heaven never wanted me— Maybe I was born for rain.

Oh, Heaven, don't come looking.

Don't call me back again.

I've made my peace with fire,

I've made my home in rain.

If sin is where you find me,

Then sin is where I'll stay.

I'd rather drown beside you

Than be saved the other way.

Let it rain,

let it wash me,

Let the whole world disappear.

If the storm is where I meet you,

I'll never fear the tears.

Let it pour until we're nothing,

Until the night consumes the light.

Call it wicked, call it sacred— I'll call it ours tonight.

(ours

tonight!)

The rain keeps falling.

The thunder knows my name.

I asked Heaven for forgiveness...

But I fell in love with the rain.
