Rain falls heavy on my skin tonight
Water washes over every trace
The city lights blur out of sight
A quiet sorrow on my face
My hair is clinging wet and dark
Reflecting shades of blue and gray
Leaving a deep and lasting mark
As shadows softly start to sway
A crystal glass held in my hand
Filled with a deep and crimson hue
I cannot seem to understand
This lingering feeling that is new
Let the rain fall down and cleanse my soul
Wash away the worries I have known
I am letting go of all control
Standing here completely on my own
This liquid warmth it sets me free
From every burden of the day
Just the dark night and the quiet me
And dreams that gently drift away
The night is cool against my cheek
A whispered secret in the breeze
No longer searching what I seek
Just finding solace in the trees
My shirt becomes a second skin
Transparent in the fading light
I feel a different strength within
Embracing shadows of the night
No need to hide or to pretend
Just letting go and feeling true
I see a path that has no end
Beneath this endless pouring dew
Let the rain fall down and cleanse my soul
Wash away the worries I have known
I am letting go of all control
Standing here completely on my own
Each drop a story softly told
A memory released and flown
A brave new chapter to unfold
A future I will make my own
Let the rain fall down and cleanse my soul
Wash away the worries I have known
I find my peace and feel whole
Standing here completely on my own
