Thankful For The Rain

From when you came to stay
Until you went away
From me
By all that's up above
You'd swore you'd keep your love
For me
And though I really do believe
Nothing's forever and I know one day I'll see

I'm thankful for the rain that washed away my pain
It came down just in time to save this heart of mine
I'm thankful for the rain

Now that the dark has passed
I see the light at last
It's true
Sometimes I close my eyes
And I drift to paradise
Oh, baby with you
Though life is bitter-sweet
I hunger just for you

And I'm thankful for the rain that washed away my pain
Came down just in time to save this heart of mine
And I'm thankful for the tide that swept away my pride
I never would have known a love that never dies
I'm thankful for the rain

I'm thankful for the rain

I'm thankful for the rain that washed away my pain
Came down just in time to save this heart of mine
I'm thankful for the tide that swept away my pride
Never would have known a love that never dies
I'm thankful for the rain

(From when you came to stay until you went away) I'm thankful for the rain
(By all that's up above, you swore you'd keep your love) oh, thankful for the rain
(From when you came to stay until you went away) oh, thankful for the rain, oh
(By all that's up above, you swore you'd keep your love) I'm thankful for the rain

I'm thankful for the rain
Thank you

Another guy that I got to work with
Who's ended up being a major influence on my life
And who I work with at every chance I get
Is a bloke called Diesel, Mark Lizotte
And I'd like to get Mark to come and ah,
Come and do a song that we wrote together
