This relates the elements of a rainstorm to the journey of forgiveness in love.

1st Verse

Cry away the rivers
that flood my angry heart,
But when the tide is low again
the tears will soon restart.
You left me out to dry
you never saw me through,
The waterworks remind me now
I’m still in love with you.

Chorus

We can run through the streets
we can dare to wonder,
We’ll go dancing in a rainstorm,
and fill the world with thunder.

2nd Verse

So take my steadfast hand
this time I won’t let go,
I’m willing to forget the past
If you’ll only let me know.
I’ll give you one more chance
I hope you’ll make it right,
Just tell me that you love me and
I’m all you want tonight.

Chorus

Bridge

Don’t try to stop the static
that’s dancing in the sky,
You left me all alone again
but that’s the reason why…

Chorus

3rd Verse

And when the storm is raging
there’s nothing we should hide,
This love is sweet redemption
for every tear I’ve cried.
But how can I be sure
you’re willing to be strong?
That you’re seeing the same lightning
and singing the same song?

Chorus

4th Verse

We’re up to our knees in love
and now you understand,
You’d much rather be swept away
than standing on dry land.
I told you not to fight it
’cause in your heart you know,
This storm called love goes raging on
no matter where we go.

Chorus

    may i steal this and write it into a song?
    that’d be great.
    write on my wall.
    peace.
