Rain

Chris Duffy

Rain

Tapping on my window to let me know you’re there
Something told me you had never gone.
Ain’t it just like you to bring me comfort
To stop me feeling broken and alone.

I’m certain that it’s got to be a sign.
That although you’re gone you re still around
I never thought that I would ever lose you
In the rain you’ve finally been found

Before we met I battled through the storm.
Life seemed so unkind before you came.
You came into my life and made it warm.
Took me home to shelter from the rain.

Rain, did you bring her back?
Or are you here to purify my soul?
I thought I heard her whisper softly in the wind
The one I miss, the one that makes me whole.

Assuming we’d be sharing our tomorrows
I never dreamed you’d ever leave my side.
My point of view is clouded by my sorrows.
Blinded by the lonely tears I cried.


Rain, I noticed you're not finished with me yet.
Not satisfied until I’m cold and wet.
Tell your Altostratus up above.
The antidote to bitterness is love.


Lost and alone I was, lost without a friend.
Then came the path I found her on at the rainbow’s end
She was my one and only pot of gold
Rain, when will I make amends and will your holy water make me whole?


Relentless, deluge water stack, punishing the earth.
A power that no man can restrain.
I’m certain that she’s coming back.
Because we all know that sunshine follows rain.
