Right As Rain by Teya H

Lyrics

Right As Rain – c. House / Biancalana

Verse:
It takes only seconds for the tears to come
until I’m on the run

to try to find the heart on my sleeve
when the world comes crushing down on me

Pre:
It gets heard to breath

Chorus:
You hold me
You hear me
You let me feel my pain.
You cry with me
You justify me
and get me right as rain
You get me right as rain

Verse:
It feels like I’m lighting candles in a hurricane
when I have to explain
I don’t know why I feel so weak
Being brave don’t come easy to me

Pre:
when it’s what I need

Chorus
You hold me
You hear me
You let me feel my pain.
You cry with me
You justify me
You get me right as rain
You get me right as rain

Bridge:
Every burden
washing away
’till I find myself again

Chorus:
You hold me
You hear me
You let me feel my pain. You cry with me
You justify me
You get me right as rain
You get me right as rain
You get me right as rain

Teya’s Bio:

There are no wasted words in a Teya House song. Her songs are plainspoken, poetic, and deeply insightful, influenced by classic and contemporary rock, singer-songwriters, and folk-rock. Her music moves between acoustic intimacy and electric grit, with lyrics full of lived-in truth, delivered in raw, honest vocals.

Starting out as a performer in small clubs and musical theater, she moved on to behind-the-scenes work with major Rock acts, experiencing both the excitement and the harsh realities of life on the road. The resilience and self-reflection she gained along the way helped to shape her life and her songwriting.
