You're saying
You've been through this before
You gave away all your secrets
To someone who up and left you in pieces
I know the feeling, believe me
I know the prices you've gotta pay
I'm sacrificing my freedom
And all just to get somebody to see me
Nobody said it was easy
My heart's been broken and broken and broken and broken
But I keep, keep on hoping and hoping and hoping and hoping
That if it keeps on breaking and breaking and breaking and breaking
That one day it'll open and open and open and open and open for you
Hey!
I know we've both been afraid, but we can't run
From the wind and the thunder when, we're dancing under
The rain, the rain, the rain
Hey!
I know we got it takes, ain't gonna run
From the wind and the thunder when, we're dancing under
The rain, the rain, the rain
We're dancing under the rain
Breathe deep, let it wash over you
We're slowly becoming lovers
I promise you we won't be like the others
We won't go running for cover
My heart is broken and broken and broken and broken
But I keep, keep on hoping and hoping and hoping and hoping
That if it keeps on breaking and breaking and breaking and breaking
That one day it'll open and open and open and open and open for you
Hey!
I know we've both been afraid, but we can't run
From the wind and the thunder when, we're dancing under
The rain, the rain, the rain
Hey!
I know we got it takes, ain't gonna run
From the wind and the thunder when, we're dancing under
The rain, the rain, the rain
We're dancing under the rain
Broken and broken and broken and broken
(We're dancing under the rain)
But I keep, keep on hoping and hoping and hoping and hoping
(Dancing under the rain)
That if it keeps on breaking and breaking and breaking and breaking
That one day it'll open and open and open and open and open for you
Hey!
I know we've both been afraid, but we can't run
From the wind and the thunder when, we're dancing under
The rain, the rain, the rain
Hey!
I know we got it takes, ain't gonna run
From the wind and the thunder when, we're dancing under
The rain, the rain, the rain
We're dancing under the rain
