You say hello like a long lost friend
And play me like an old violin
And in a day or two you're gone again
And I wonder why I keep playingI sit and watch the clouds each day
Wondering when they'll turn to gray
And you come and you go
Like a storm across the coast
And expect me to be thankful for the rainWell I guess I should be thankful for
All the nights of straight downpours
And soaking up every drop I get
'Cause who knows how long I'll have to wait
'Til you come blowing back my way
I'm learning to be thankful for the rainI know when the morning comes
The truth will rise up like the sun
As I'm cleaning up the damage done
There's everything I prayed for
