[verse 1]
It rained that afternoon
The drops mixed with my tears
When the thought flooded my heart
That you would not be here
It rained that afternoon
Washed away the pain
This love will last forever
This love will never wane
[chorus]
The day you drove away, it rained
In time we’ll find our destined place
The sun will surely shine again
So brightly on your face
[verse 2]
It rained this afternoon again
My mind’s heart spoke your name
I wonder if you feel these words
If love can never wane
The rain will wash away the past
The sun will pierce the clouds
The pain of love replaces loss
Cuts through the sacred shroud
[chorus]
The day you drove away, it rained
In time we’ll find our destined place
The sun will surely shine again
So brightly on your face
[verse 3]
Tomorrow’s sun will rise again
The hope of love’s return
Shining brightly in my heart
Where mind and soul discern
Our love will find a home again
And wash away the pain
This love will last forever
This love will never wane
[chorus]
The day love found a home, it rained
In time love will replace
The sun will surely shine again
So brightly on your face
Ending Rain (original poem)
It rained that afternoon
The drops mixed with my tears
When the thought flooded my heart
That you would not be here
It rained that afternoon
Washed away the pain
This love will last forever
This love will never wane
The day you drove away, it rained
In time we’ll find our destined place
The sun will surely shine again
So brightly on your face
It rained this afternoon again
My mind’s heart spoke your name
I wonder if you feel these words
If love can never wane
The rain will wash away the past
The sun will pierce the clouds
The pain of love replaces loss
Cuts through the sacred shroud
The day you drove away, it rained
In time we’ll find our destined place
The sun will surely shine again
So brightly on your face
Tomorrow’s sun will rise again
The hope of love’s return
Shining brightly in my heart
Where mind and soul discern
Our love will find a home again
And wash away the pain
This love will last forever
This love will never wane
The day love found a home, it rained
In time love will replace
The sun will surely shine again
So brightly on your face
