Verse 1
she’s there
I know she’s always there awaiting her chance
waiting to be seen, there in her corner
or climbing up her favorite tree

‘please look at me
I’m conquering the whole world
while you keep on chatting away
will anyone ever know how beautiful you are?

she’s still there, she keeps waiting
while singing a song of reality

Verse 2
growing up like other people seem to do, so easily
mixing, matching, joyfully latching
onto life’s mysteries

she keeps clinging to the thought that all is human
finding reasons for her bluesy feelings
talking to this busy little thing

questions and answers
that are flowing from the deepest
inner places of her heart
there, where she’s not waiting

chorus
here’s the rain in my heart
here’s the sorrow in my life
trickling and dripping
into a song

sometimes it comes and it goes
like a stranger
appearing at night, alone
leaving where the southern winds will take him

listen to the rain
and listen to your heart
listen and hear the sound within

sometimes it comes and it goes
it’s a message
teaching you about life, about love
telling you to find the southern winds again

 

coda
give me the rain that falls in your heart
give me the sorrow in your life
sometimes it comes, sometimes it goes
wait til the wind blows
