For The Rain

It’s when he died That it all started The sun seemed to hide Behind the curtain of clouds And the rain cried down on me It hadn’t rained for years Ever since I fell in love with him I’d missed it But even more than these tears I miss him His smile and laugh His whole personality His funny side that made me cry of laughter His kind side that made me feel so special I miss him But he died for me It’s what everyone says right? That there soul died for them Well it’s true He knew how much I missed the rain And he knew he was connected with it He could see how I longed for someone to cry with So he took a knife to his chest And he let his life go I did miss the rain My partner to cry with The tears that fell from the sky But not as much as I miss him When he came the sun shined It was hot and hot and just hot But he cooled me down He brought me inside the house of his heart And I no longer burned from the sun He shut the door But it was for me And now he’s shut the door open wide For me For the rain He gave up everything
