Rain Must Fall

Looking out my window at a dark and dreary day
I sigh and feel my sadness start to grow
Rain taps at the glass as I watch the world go by
A tear drop in my eye begins to show
Feeling down about myself my head begins to sag
It comes to rest against the window pane
A tear runs down my face as I slowly close my eyes
And listen to the gentle falling rain

Now I think about my life and hurt inside again
Wishing that these scars would not last
Although I've moved ahead, I am limited in ways
By the storms I've weathered in the past
Suddenly I was aware the sound of rain was gone
And noticing my breath had fogged the glass
I wiped away the dew and I looked outside again
Rays of sunshine glistened in the grass

Then I saw a rainbow shining bright across the sky
My sullen mood began to fade away
Picking myself up, I walked over to the door
And stepped outside into the sunny day
With my spirits lifted I began to understand
And realize the wonder of it all
So that we appreciate and cherish every day
Into our lives a little rain must fall
