Can you hear the beat of the rain
Urging you to dance?
Feel it soaking in your skin
Draws your brilliance
Embrace the darkened clouds you carry
There are stars up high
Dare to jump in all the puddles
Limits don’t apply
Let the lightening flash before your eyes
Let the mud sink between your toes
Hold out your arms, because tonight
The thunder sings for you
So let go, let go
Can you hear it strike the ground?
The rhythm alive
Make a fool of yourself
Come out of your mind
There’s more to being brace
Than defeating your doubts
Dare to jump into the storm
Apart from the crowd
Let the lightening flash before your eyes
Let the mud sink between your toes
Hold out your arms, because tonight
The thunder sings for you
So let go, let go
Let your body make its own melody
Let your days breathe colour into life
Let the lightening flash before your eyes
Let the mud sink between your toes
Hold out your arms, because tonight
The thunder sings for you
So let go, let go, let go
