|
Angel that you are you still remember summer walks |
|
And quiet talks we had before our clouds were breaking |
|
In the heaven of your mind your hopeful heart has put behind |
|
All the ugly jealous times our hearts were aching |
|
Now that your pain has been mended |
|
You're only seeing one side |
|
Behind the bright easy laughter |
|
Rivers of tears have been cried |
|
So remember the rain when you think of the sunshine |
|
You've got to try and see that's it's gone for you and me |
|
And there is no way to bring it back again |
|
In a sad unstable way I love you more than I can say |
|
But now it's locked in yesterday and must remain there |
|
The gentle prisoner in the stall sometimes forgets the very walls |
|
That gave her shelter in the fall have also chained her |
|
Drink from the spring of tomorrow |
|
Yesterday's well has gone dry |
|
All the good times are behind us |
|
And whenever you ask yourself why |
|
Just remember the rain when you think of the sunshine |
|
On the ocean of a smile we floated easy for awhile |
|
But now we've drifted to the shore where beauty dies |
|
It isn't easy to explain I never dreamed you felt the same |
|
But even though you're not to blame we can't continue |
|
Don't let yourself pretend that we've got something to defend |
|
You've got to try to face the end with all that's in you |
|
I can't deny that I love you |
|
But my soul can no longer be bound |
|
Fly on the wings of your freedom |
|
But whenever you look to the ground |
|
Just remember the rain when you think of the sunshine |
|
Try to understand it has fallen from our hands |
|
And just be thankful that your soul is still your own |
