the beauty of the rain
When you know the day is ending all too soon  You're just two umbrellas one late afternoon  You never know what you will say  This is your favorite kind of day  It has no walls, the beauty of the rain  Is how it falls, how it falls, how it falls   And there's nothing wrong but there is something more  And sometimes you wonder what you love her for  She says you've known her deepest fears  'Cause she showed you a box of stained-glass tears  It can't be all, the truth about the rain  Is how it falls, how it falls, how it falls   But when she gave you more to find  You let her think she'd lost her mind  And that's all on you  Feeling helpless if she asked for help  Or scared you'd have to change yourself   And you can't deny this room will keep you warm.  You can look out of your window at the storm  But you watch the phone and hope it rings  You'll take her any way she sings  Or how she calls, the beauty of the rain  Is how it falls, how it falls, how it falls  How it falls, how it falls, how it falls
