There I was
Holding an umbrella on the sunniest of days
Then he came
When he asked me why, I replied, “Just because”
I knew he saw all the pain I contained
And I felt he watched that boy love me then leave
He took my umbrella and told me I didn’t need to stop hiding
I just needed to find a new place for it
I agreed, and he took me in his arms and asked, “How’s this work?”
In that moment I knew why my past love was no longer present
I knew why in his arms I was sheltered from all hurt
It’s not that I think he’s a perfect person
Some days I even put a question to ‘I love you’s’ directed towards him
But without him I’d still be carrying the same umbrella
Wishing the sun would do as I did and hide
Wishing it would rain forever
Now I couldn't care less about the weather
I’ve got something way better
