Walking In the Rain

I love walking in the rain
The tears
The pain
Both streaming down my face
I can't see
The end of the road
But I can see
The end of you and me
It's pouring
Just like my heart
I hear thunder
I see lightening
I feel the strength on our love
Untightening
The love is fading
My goodbye is awaiting
I can feeling the love passing
Just like the storm
That I'm walking through too fast
I can see you're torn
My heart is too
I can't believe this is goodbye
It came so fast
The storm shall past
But my love for you will always last
