Remember when you said my love was like the rain
Not the sweet sound after the drought
But the pain of it hard on your back in a storm
Remember when you said my love was like the sea
Not the big pool in a tropical
You said I had the arctic inside of me
Remember when you said my love was like a rose
Not the sweet bloom
But the pain as it scratches your hand
Remember when you said my love was like the sky
Not the big blue
But the unknown black
(ooh)
So I embodied these elements (ooh)
So I embodied these elements
I wear them like a fragrance (ooh)
Remember when you said
I’m a wildfire in the wind
Not the hot coals in December
Remember when you said I’m a lily in the spring
So sad but so beautiful
Remember when you said my love was like the rain
Not the sweet sound after the drought
But the pain of it hard on your back in a storm
(but the pain of it hard on your back in a storm)
(ooh)
So I embodied these elements (ooh)
So I embodied these elements I wear them like a fragrance
(ooh) (ooh)
So I embodied these elements (ooh)
So I embodied these elements I wear them like a fragrance (ooh)

This looks like from a movie. What a great photography and art direction.

A week ago i was driving near to Zurich for work, under the rain. I went there from Italy, such an interesting travel. The sun came up through the clouds with this song on Kanal k radio. Smiling for no reason and smoke a cigarette at 120km/h, while I was coming back home. Best sensation ever.

[@elenami2]

this might be one of the most truthful declarations of a specific emotion that embodies both acceptance and bitterness, humans are really like the moon with difference sides to show, and it's always sad when someone aknowledge our beauty but notice the sad place beauty is hidden

[@schorsch7527]

Wow!!!! ❤️😢😊❤️

[@nidahsagardey9337]

It's a very beautiful comment

Ugh. This song and video make me cry. It has helped me tremendously with a specific feeling from a breakup, has allowed me to give so much back to myself. Thank you to everyone who made this piece reality. Beauty, I feel connected to myself through this

oh man this video hits like a mutha fucka. i always feel like a little kid in various situations between friends, relationships and just the day to day. i feel like there's wonder here, i know it, i feel it, but almost no one acknowledges it or sees it or they just say it's nothing special . . . idk

[@leafnlore2712]

My new favorite song. Thank you, Holly.

[@Midnightcity810]

Brilliant

[@Turtleproof]

I've watched this so many times but didn't realize what happens in the video. She tried her best but drowned and woke up in the afterlife dancing with people in the void.

[@moonbeam603]

Thank you, I wasn't exactly sure what was happening. I had a few theories but this seems most accurate.

[@Turtleproof]

@@moonbeam603 Thanks! It's just my interpretation without reading liner notes or interviews about it but there is a distinct sense of her being isolated here then she is carefree and surrounded by others in a metaphysical sort of space ... or it's just the usual pitch black dance club (but that's no place for a child).

[@malfy8369]

Evokes emotions in me that I never knew I had, the lyrics the music perfection ❤️💯

[@rdino6277]

OMG I HAD A MINI HEART ATTACK SEEING THIS. WELCOME BACK!!!!

[@jjameswynn]

This song/rhythm inspires me to move in a fun, playful, silly way like kids do-with that complete sense of innocence and worriless freedom! I recommend giving it a try as an adult! GO! : ) !
