I wanna walk with you,
love -
With the world falling down around us
And the sky pouring down on our heads;
With the pathways
slick and
treacherous
And the winds of change howling around us;
Know that they'll say we'll never make it,
But inside - inside, I'm hoping we will.
I have
faith in us, in us together -
I know we'll change our rainy days -
Together... we can turn 'em into something - else;
No longer will they be dreary, but
magical instead.
We'll make the raindrops gifts - to quench our thirst;
The wind - it'll be a present - given to lift our
wings.
The skies, once dark and bleak, are merely - Nay, better -
They become a test of
endurance, strengthening our spirits.
We will know the beauty of the weathered,
Feel the joy in the wrinkles carved by
time.
Standing strong, bending often: this... yes, this
Is what the storms that others see as a burden
Shall provide us, these two souls
Just-a Walkin' in the
Rain.
