From when you came to stay until you went away from me
By all that's up above you 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 dark has passed I see the light at last it's true
Sometimes I close my eyes, I drift into paradise baby with you
Though life is bitter sweet I hunger just for you
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 tide that swept away my pride
I never would have known a love that never died
I'm thankful for the rain
From when you came to stay until you went away
By all that's up above you swore you'd keep your love
I'm thankful for the rain
