When the sky is heavy with black clouds
And they burst and we have pouring rain,
I am going to take a long slow walk
For the rain to hide my misery and pain.
It will be like a cleansing of the soul
The rain will wash away all my blues,
Each tear a pain falling from my heart
Leaving it feeling empty and bruised.
My tears will finally stop and dry up
Crying will have done me some good,
I will feel so much better inside
Nothing works like a good cry would.
Feeling better about things in general
I will once again wear a smile,
The rain will have done a good job
With things in general I will reconcile.
The rain and my tears have both stopped
Things look so much brighter now,
The sun will shine and the clouds will go
I have been crying but no one will know.
