fuk her. she left and now she can't come back

Lyrics:

Barefoot
Sidewalk still breathing yesterday’s sun
Sky sparks in the distance 
but we don’t run
She smiled like we owned the clouds
before they broke

And the rain spoke

Most would flee
We froze
Not out of fear
but because it felt like
time owed us this moment
The drops
Didn’t fall they danced
And we lit up
storm-borne and bright


While the world tried to wipe itself clean
we laughed
Pain rinsed off in pieces
Skin soaked
But I felt new 
reborn in the rhythm of her grin
No umbrella
Just her hand
Just the spin
Time
Gone
We were everything

Hair tangled
Eyes closed
Whispered
Let’s never go back

Thunder rolled
But we didn’t

We breathed the chaos
Step by splash
inch by ache
we lived the rain

No soundtrack
Just heartbeat tempo
Reflections in puddles
mirroring more than just faces 
they mirrored truth

While to wipe itself clean
we laughed
Pain rinsed off in pieces
Skin soaked
But I felt new 
reborn in the rhythm of her grin
No umbrella
Just her hand
Just the spin
Time
Gone
We were everything

We danced
Laughed
Got drenched
And I’d do it all again 
just to feel her hand in mine
To forget time
To be hers 
in that summer rain

Maybe we fade
Like July skies
But that look 
that storm-born silence in her eyes 
It’s carved somewhere deep
Where even thunder
can’t touch

While the world tried to wipe itself clean
we laughed
Pain rinsed off in pieces
Skin soaked
But I felt new 
reborn in the rhythm of her grin
No umbrella
Just her hand
Just the spin
Time
Gone
We were everything

We danced
Laughed
Got drenched
And I’d do it all again 
just to feel her hand in mine
To forget time
To be hers 
in that summer rain

Finding My Way Back

Maxwell has artfully managed to transfix music lovers for more than two decades, releasing five studio albums, all in his own time and all duly anointed as classics. The soul singer redefined soul music in April of 1996 when he released his critically acclaimed debut on Columbia, ‘Maxwell’s Urban Hang Suite.’ It earned Grammy nominations, double platinum status and RIAA gold for the single, “Ascension (Don’t Ever Wonder).” The platinum albums ‘Embrya’ (1998) and ‘Now’ (2001) followed. In 2009, Maxwell’s ‘BLACKsummers’night’ debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, earning two Grammy awards, including Best R&B Album. With a total of 4 platinum album certifications from the RIAA, Maxwell’s latest album, ‘blackSUMMERS’night,’ earned him a third Grammy (Best R&B Song for “Lake By The Ocean”), an NAACP Image Award (Outstanding Male Artist), and a Soul Train Award (Best R&B/Soul Male Artist). Recent accolades for Maxwell include the “Legend” Award at the 2021 Soul Train Awards and a performance at the 2022 Billboard Music Awards, where he paid tribute to Michael Jackson with “The Lady In My Life.” His critically acclaimed ‘The Night Tour’ also made Pollstar’s 2022 list of “Top 20 Global Concert Tours,” determined by average box office gross and the average ticket price for shows worldwide.
