Sweater Weather

Maybe with this letter
Maybe with this gift
Maybe I might make it better
Maybe I could close this rift
Between us
I still hope
And dream us
Together

And I'll hold you like a sweater
If you want me to
Whisper love light like a feather
Or hard and heavy like the rain which
Falls for you

Maybe I've become untethered
Maybe i've been gone too long
Maybe all the storms we've weathered
Maybe I was never strong
Enough
I still sing
A song of us
Together

And I'll hold you like a sweater
If you want me to
Whisper love light like a feather
Or hard and heavy like the rain which
Falls for you

Wherever we go, have gone, or been
It's I and the rain
Falling for you again
All the strange ways we've changed within
I'll dry your eyes from the pain and
Hold you closer then
Hold you closer in
These waiting arms

And I'll hold you like a sweater
If you want me to
Whisper love light like a feather
Or hard and heavy like the rain which
Falls for you

Even if I can't make it better
I'll make it side by side with you
We'll warm together
While the world wakes
Bright and new

Maybe with this letter
I'll hold you like a sweater
And you can wear me
You can wear me out
