Powerful and Moving: Sara Bareilles Live, “Saint Honesty” [VIDEO]
We’re leaving all the windows open
We don’t even mind the rain
Or where we let the floors get wet
So what if the hardwood stains?
‘Cause we’re collecting evidence
Of one remarkable storm
How wild it was to find it, finally feel the climate
Instead of only staying dry and warmRain on us, Saint Honesty
Salvation is coming in the morning, but now what we need
Is a little rain on our face from you, sweet Saint HonestySo we won’t sleep tonight
While we brace against the wind
Oh, these hearts, they’re weather-makers
We’ll go where they take us
Until we find ourselves shelter again
We won’t settle for the silence
We won’t drown in the tears
We’ll say every single word even if we think they’ll hurt
Let the rain wash away these tearsRain on us, Saint Honesty
Salvation is coming in the morning, and now what we need
Is a little rain on our face from you, sweet Saint HonestyOh, we won’t let go, we’ll be soaked to the bone
Baptized by truth, we will reap what we sow
Build our own higher ground when the rain’s coming down
This is worth it to me, Saint HonestyRain
Salvation is coming in the morning
Wait patiently, aiming straight for it
But now what we need
Is a little rain on our face from you, sweet Saint Honesty
