Rain

Rain, rain, don’t go away.
Please stay around for today.
My body is weak, and my soul is dry.
It’s time for someone else to cry.
Take my bruised and battered soul;
Wash it, cleanse it, make it whole.
Rain, rain, wash me away.
Carry me off to a brighter day;
To the sea where troubles are no more.
Take me to that distant shore.
The sun rises where sky and sea collide,
And on that horizon I will hide.
Rain, rain, don’t go away.
Please stay around for today.
