Let It Rain
A.C. Boutsen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The lies are easier to tell
And all the reasons why just don't mean a lot
When it comes to why we fell
And he doesn't know
And she doesn't know
He doesn't know
She doesn't know
And you know
And pretty soon
They have to know
Cause we can't let it go
The right thing to do would be to figure this out
But we get together and don't talk very much
We spend every second feeling every touch
And he doesn't know
And she doesn't know
He doesn't know
She doesn't know
But I know
And you know
And pretty soon
They have to know
Cause we can't let this go
We can't let this go
We can't let it go
