Significance of Rain

Some say its a blessing, 
Some say he's just angry, 
Some say he's crying, 
Some say it's just nothing

Dancing off the ground creating a vast puddle, 
Rushing down the edge of the curb, 
Cars zoom by as if the driver is in a rush
Couple's in the living room cuddle 

Taking away the pain, some call it rain
Questioning their lives, questioning why ... Dreaming 
Leaving one thoughtless, mind clear like the glass on the window pane 

Others are angry because it ruined their plans,
Little do they know a blessing was the plan, 
Thank God that you are alive to see another day, 
After all when the storm is done, a rainbow reminds you of the promise he made 

Some say its a blessing, 
Some say he's just angry, 
Some say he's crying ... Think About It -- 
Its just a Promise kept alive , never dying
