Oh Rain Cloud Oh Rain Cloud

I hear silent whispers in the wind “Take my hand and walk with me And maybe one day You can come To see what I see” What nonsense is this All I know is what I will come to see Will be the shining light of the sun As the night comes to an end The bright sun will come up So I wait for that light to guide me After the long dark night But upon morning there is no shining sun to greet me It is hidden by foreboding black storm clouds Oh rain cloud oh rain cloud You can be so quite yet so loud You know me better than I know you But I look to those clouds and only see beauty For they bring rain do they not And rain will wash this dirty earth And moisten the cracked dirt With this luscious rain it brings life To the dead ground This rain reminds me that through all of the pain regrets and mistakes You can still be washed anew Just watch the rain to wash it all away Forget about yesterday and let the new and beautiful begin Open your heart to what you never expected Maybe something magnificent will happen You'll never know until you try Oh rain cloud oh rain cloud You can be so quite yet so loud You know me better than I know you But I know that I am still here But at the moment just hidden away in this shell of a person I have become But like those clouds This shell will soon be gone And the sun inside will burst out with Shinning and beautiful light Just like the one that sits inside my heart Oh rain cloud oh rain cloud You can be so quite yet so loud You know me better than I know you Time will bring this friendship to a close But only for a short while Until then I will remember the lesson I have learned Beauty Joy and laughter are not Always going to be shinning brightly Nor will they always be loud Sometimes they are Muted and dimmed But it does not mean that they are gone Now I can say those far off distan whispers Were from my own heart Just hidden away Like I was that long ago day Take my hand and walk with me And maybe one day You can come to see what I see Oh rain cloud oh rain cloud You can be so quite yet so loud You know me better than I know you
