Close as the Rain
Style: Gospel soul

[Verse 1]
Streetlamp gold on the wet tarmac
Two sets of footsteps, never slack
You keep your stride right next to mine
We walk it slow and take our time

[Pre-chorus]
I feel the warmth before I feel the rain
I hear the echo of your name
Something's building, calling me to say

[Chorus]
Finlay, you're the light I lean on
Steady as the glow when the dark comes on
Finlay, hold me close on a thin day
You're my shelter, come what may

[Verse 2]
You never rush me, never pull ahead
You match my heart, you match my step
When the puddles shine like something new
I only want to shine with you

[Pre-chorus]
I feel the warmth before I feel the rain
I hear the echo of your name
Something's building, calling me to say

[Chorus]
Finlay, you're the light I lean on
Steady as the glow when the dark comes on
Finlay, hold me close on a thin day
You're my shelter, come what may

[Bridge]
Let the whole world hurry past
Let it try to move too fast
I'll take slow, I'll take you near
Nothing louder than you here

[Chorus]
Finlay, you're the light I lean on
Steady as the glow when the dark comes on
Finlay, hold me close on a thin day
You're my shelter, come what may

[Outro]
Two shadows still close on the tarmac
I'd walk this road and never look back
