My Love Was Like the Rain Lyrics
Remember when you said
My love was like the rain
Not the sweet sound after the drought
But the pain of it hard on your back in a storm
Remember when you said
My love was like the sea
Not the big pool in a tropical
You said I had the arctic inside of me
Remember when you said
My love was like a rose
Not the sweet bloom
But the pain as it scratches your hand
Remember when you said
My love was like the sky
Not the big blue
But the unknown black
(Ooh-ooh)
So I embodied these elements (Oh)
So I embodied these elements
I wear them like a fragrance (Ooh-ooh)
(Oh)
Remember when you said
I'm a wildfire in the wind
Not the hot coals in December
Remember when you said
I'm a lily in the spring
So sad, but so beautiful
Remember when you said
My love was like the rain
Not the sweet sound after the drought
But the pain of it hard on your back in a storm
(But the pain of it hard on your back in a storm)
(Ooh-ooh)
So I embodied these elements (Oh)
So I embodied these elements
I wear them like a fragrance (Ooh-ooh)
(Oh)
(Ooh-ooh)
(Oh)
So I embodied these elements (Oh)
So I embodied these elements
I wear them like a fragrance (Ooh-ooh)

That came together super quickly. I never really write at such a fast tempo, and I just remember shoving loads of like Robyn tracks on, and thinking, ‘I want to make a song that has this kind of energy!’ but then I gravitated towards darker chords.
