Running from the Rain

(Written for Beverly and Cue - they met in the rain)

Lately I've been losing faith
In all the things that used to matter...
but I keep hopin' I can find my way again...

Because I've been... chasing nameless shadows
that fade into the night
I'm blowin' aimless, like a feather... caught in the wind
Wishing... you and I had never... come to an end

I keep
Running from the rain
nothing left to lose and... nothing more to gain

Running from the rain
Trying to pretend... I'm over the pain...
Of losing you,
Of losing you...

But then I seem to see you... everywhere I turn
and all resolve within me melts...
as the fire inside of me...
once again... begins to burn...

Runnin' from the rain
nothing left to lose and,,, nothing more to gain

Running from the rain
Trying to pretend... I'm over the pain...
Of losing you,
Of losing you...

And suddenly I feel as if I'm wrapped within your arms
And helplessly but willingly I'm trapped amid your charms
But then I wake at last to see...
It's just a vivid memory... of you... and me

And no, I never will forget...
How the sky poured down the day we met...
And I... I sheltered you
But now your gone and I don't regret
A single moment that I ever shared with you...
You know it's true

But
Lately I've been losing faith
In all the things that used to matter...
but I keep hopin' I can find my way again...

Because I've been... chasing nameless shadows
that fade into the night
I'm blowin' aimless like a feather... caught in the wind
Wishing... you and I had never... come to an end

I keep
Running from the rain
nothing left to lose and... nothing more to gain

Running from the rain
Tryin' to pretend... I'm over the pain...
Of losing you,
Of losing you...

Lately I've been losing faith...
I keep runnin'
runnin'....
from... the rain.
