Take This Rain

Lyrics

It used to be there were two sets of footprints in the sand  
And there were two silhouettes in the sunset hand in hand  
But now here beside the sea are the footprints of three  
And I can't find my own  
Among the directions they're all going  
  
Baby it's alright  
Break this chain of love and madness  
It's alright  
Take this rain as your new address  
  
It's alright  
Take this rain  
It's alright  
Take this rain  
  
'Cause I've been running all over creation out of my mind  
Trying to keep our hearts beating together all of the time  
Going crazier every day  
Watching our love slipping away  
  
'Cause you're the only home I've ever wanted  
And the only light I've known  
  
But baby it's alright  
Break this chain of love and madness  
It's alright  
Take this rain as your new address  
  
It's alright  
Take this rain  
It's alright  
Take this rain  
You're going to be free  
  
Some people go through life seeing just what they want to see  
Take the way I went on believing  
You might still believe in me  
And I still want the love I always thought our love could be  
But some things can't be changed  
Take this rain  
  
You're going to hear my voice in the morning calling your name  
And know my love and my desperation were one and the same  
And where our footprints used to be  
There'll be nothing but the sea  
And the tide and the wind and the open sky  
And the unbroken horizon  
  
Baby it's alright  
Break this chain of love and madness  
It's alright  
Take this pain and all this sadness  
  
It's alright  
Make this rain into your fortress  
It's alright  
Take this rain  
  
It's alright  
Take this rain  
It's alright  
Take this rain  
You're going to be free
