Sweet Heaven

Sweet rain from dear heaven 
are you drowning me 
with your tears
to quench the flames 
burning my soul

sweet wind from dear heaven
are you swaying me
with your kisses
to join my loneliness
drowning my heart

sweet thunder from dear heaven
are you blaming me
with your roars
to curse my sadness
devouring my flesh

sweet lighting from dear heaven
are you showing me
with your bolts
to end my darkness
blinding my sight

sweet heaven for now you can rest
as your love has reached me
