Chorus
I’ve seen lightning that could blind the eyes.
I’ve heard thunder that would shake the skies.
I’ve watched white clouds turn coal-black dark.
But I never thought it could rain so hard.
Verse 1
Down and down, the rain came down.
It soaked me to my bones.
For days and days I felt it pound.
But it couldn’t wash this pain from my soul.
Repeat Chorus
Verse 2
I cried make it stop, dear God make it stop.
Or else I know I will drown.
I can’t take another drop.
That’s when the sun came out.
Final Chorus
Now I see sunlight and it soothes my eyes.
Pouring down from a faded denim sky.
A cloud’s been lifted that was coal-black dark
And brought an end to a rain so hard.
I pray I never again see it rain so hard.
