Dar Williams - The Beauty of the Rain lyrics

The Beauty of the Rain

By Dar Williams

And you know the light is fading all too soon

You're just two umbrellas one late afternoon

You don't know the next thing 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's shown 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
