Carlene Carter - The Rain lyrics

How long

Has it been dear

Since we felt the rain

Endless were our summers

Until the weather changed

Our love was lifted like a harvest

No winter in your eyes

Now cold winds cut Right through us

And so the harvest dies

Stranded and lost without you

My pain lives in this house

It's like your heart here

Empty and cold dear

My wild birds flying south

I know that you can hear me

Crying

Where did I

Go wrong

What brought this storm

Into your heart

After loving me so long

Someday

Maybe you'll blame

All this on the rain

But until then

Love's the one thing

I'll never feel again

And after all my tears have

Drowned me

And nothing else

Remains

I'll be one step short of heaven

Seeking shelter from the rain

Someday

Maybe you'll blame

All this on the rain

But until then

Love's the one thing

I'll never feel again
