[Verse 1]
Baring my soul to you
And here comes the rain again
Once the weight of the world was a feather
Sweet innocence
There is a dusty room
Kept for a friend
You threw the windows to the world wide open
When will I see you again?
[Chorus]
We used to be the raincatchers
And we couldn't see what we were running from
You made me feel like
Nothing really matters
Here in my dreams, we're raincatchers
Come back to me like it was before
You made me feel like
Nothing really matters, nothing really matters
[Verse 2]
If we let this run
Caught on a river
Everything that we left unspoken
Will never be said
[Pre-Chorus]
And you forgot (Miss you always)
But I remember (I remember)
[Chorus]
We used to be the raincatchers
And we couldn't see what we were running from
You made me feel like
Nothing really matters
Here in my dreams, we're raincatchers
Come back to me like it was before
You made me feel like
Nothing really matters, nothing really matters
[Bridge]
If I called out
Would you listen?
The shaking ground
Do you feel it? (Do you feel it?)
If I called out (If I called out)
Would you listen? (Would you listen?)
Shaking ground (If I called out)
Would you feel it?
[Pre-Chorus]
Far away
I'll remember (I'll remember)
[Chorus]
We used to be the raincatchers
And we couldn't see what we were running from
And you made me feel like
Nothing really matters (Nothing really matters)
Where have you been, raincatcher?
Come back to me like it was before
You made me feel like
Nothing really matters, nothing really matters
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ah-ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
