(Chorus)
I see the rain drop on the porch.
No thunder. I wonder,
Why do we save for a rainy day?
I'm saying, "Oh, isn't it amazing?"
I said, oh, isn't it amazing?
(Verse 1)
Rain. Rain down from the rain clouds.
Rain pours, makes sounds, but it ain't loud.
Drip, drip, and I drop the tears
That I've been waiting to release, bottled up for years,
but it's not a sign that I'm weak.
It's just a sign of the stress and the fears release.
It's a cold life in this mind of mine,
and there's no warmth in the sun anymore,
so I'm back and forth and I'm side to side
until I let go, and the rain starts to pour.
It seems that every time the pain is done,
I look up to the sky, but I don't see the sun;
I see the rain.
(Chorus)
(Verse 2)
Hear the pitter patter.
Everything will start to matter.
All worries please come to the front of the line in my mind.
Guess you gotta set aside a time to fight the demons;
that must just be the rain's design.
As I relapse to depression,
there's a lot of thoughts that I think that keep pressing like
how do I be happy? Life is a car that I drive from the backseat.
This is not finale. Get out of the valley. Frankly, we're not built for the test, but we're passing.
Rain shouldn't feel like a crash scene.
Maybe it's a break just to add to the happy.
I see the rain.
(Chorus)
(Verse 3)
Rain, rain, rain, rain
go, go away.
So, so I say
until I feel the pain and then I start to break.
You don't see the beauty of the rain.
You only see the sun,
but I've been going through a drought, and I can tell you
that it's not a pleasant feeling. I've been cracked instead of healing,
and a constant sky of blue can make you feel the color too.
That's when I see the rain drop on the porch, and I start to release all the grief in a song,
And I saw, when the clouds took their form,
that hope and happiness were waiting right around the corner.
I see the rain.
(Chorus)
(Outro)
I said, oh, isn't it amazing?
I said, oh, isn't it amazing?
