You say hello like a long lost friend
|
And play me like an old violin
|
And in a day or two you're gone again
|
And I wonder why I keep playing
|
I sit and watch the clouds each day
|
Wondering when they will turn to gray
|
And you come and go
|
Like a storm across the coast
|
And expect me to be thankful for the rain
|
|
Well I guess I should be thankful for
|
All the nights of straight downpours
|
And soaking up every drop I get
|
'Cause who knows how long I'll have to wait
|
'Til you come blowing back my way
|
I'm learning to be thankful for the rain
|
|
I know when the morning comes
|
The truth will rise up like the sun
|
As I'm cleaning up the damage done
|
There's everything I prayed for
|
|
You come and go
|
Like a storm across the coast
|
And expect me to be thankful for the rain
|
|

Thankful For The Rain
