We can no longer run from this dangerous rain
Soaked through to the bone with every step we sustain
Sheltered here underneath our little shelter so small
Joy and sorrow collide as they carry us all
Taking us in directions we can't foresee
Right now there is nothing that we need to be
Just listening close to the falling rain
Ear and sadness begin to fade away again
In the rain, I can feel water touching my hair
As the setting sun softly slips out of view over there
There's a place down the road that I'm longing to see
Though the path is so long and as rough as can be
In the rain, I can hear broken voices call out
Through a night that has lingered and stretched all about
Underneath my two feet, all the rain's getting heavy and deep
We just stand here and let downpours fall on the secret we keep
Looking out through a window pane clear as the day
A faint silhouette watches rain fall away
Tomorrow she'll walk to her school through the street
With the fresh, chilly rain beneath young, walking feet
Memories of the raindrops come rushing right back
No more fear, no more grief on this quieted track
Just a comforting warmth as our hands reach out high
To catch falling droplets that drop from the sky
Bravery, joy, everything's coming back inside
In the rain, I can feel water touching my hair
As the setting sun softly slips out of view over there
There's a place down the road that I'm longing to see
Though the path is so long and as rough as can be
In the rain, I can hear broken voices call out
Through a night that has lingered and stretched all about
Underneath my two feet, all the rain's getting heavy and deep
We just stand here and let downpours fall on the secret we keep
