Born in a dry season
Wind and sand have blown through me
Haven`t found shade anywhere
Only moments of relief
But sometimes I think I hear the thunder
Somewhere on the horizon line
If i could just find a way to get under
The rain that can reach this soul of mine
(chorus)
I pray for rain to come
And wash away what`s made me numb
I pray for a ragging storm
To drown what`s in me
And the rain comes in the nick of time
I swallow hard cause my throat`s been dry
The rain comes beating on my skin
Till I`m washed away - nothing left within
When the rain comes
Your rain comes
Seasons have passed so quickly
Since I felt that first big storm
Still there have been times of drought
When i`ve prayed for the clouds to form
And I often hear the thunder
And I know of its coming rain
Many times in my life I`ll kneel under
The moving showers that brought this change
(chorus 2x)
