Ill Take The Rain Lyrics

    The rain came down
    The rain came down
    The rain came down on me.

    The wind blew strong
    The summer song
    Fades to memory

    I knew you when
    I loved you then
    The summer's young and helpless.

    You laid me bare
    You marked me there
    The promises we made.

    I used to think
    As birds take wing
    They sing through life so why can't we?
    You cling to this
    You claim the best
    If this is what you're offering
    I'll take the rain
    I'll take the rain
    I'll take the rain.

    The nighttime creases
    Summer schemes
    And stretches out to stay.
    The sun shines down
    You came around
    You love easy days.

    But now the sun,
    The winter's come.
    I wanted just to say
    That if I hold
    I'd hope you'd fold Open up inside, inside of me.

    I used to think
    As birds take wing
    They sing through life so why can't we?
    You cling to this
    You claim the best
    If this is what you're offering
    I'll take the rain
    I'll take the rain
    I'll take the rain.

    This winter song
    I'll sing along
    I've searched its still refrain
    I'll walk alone
    I've given this, take wing
    Celebrate the rain.

    I used to think
    As birds take wing
    They sing through life so why can't we?
    You cling to this
    You claim the best
    If this is what you're offering
    I'll take the rain
    I'll take the rain
    I'll take the rain.
