Lyrics
STOP THE RAIN WORDS & MUSIC by APRIL HIGUERA & PAUL WILSON ©copyright2009 I left the house this morning, My mind on the day ahead. Ran into a young couple, fighting, I heard every word they said. Their daughter standing by, Tears running down her cheek, With a lost look in her eyes. I realized I was watching a sad goodbye. 2) The mother took the girl And walked toward another man. The father started crying, And the little girl couldn't understand. She cried Daddy you just got home, From three long year at war. Did I do something wrong? Don't you love me anymore? Did I do something wrong? Don't you love me anymore? Chorus) If I could stop the rain... If I could ease her heartache. If I could dry the tears, Rolling down her pretty face. The sun would shine again, If I could stop the rain. 3) He'd fought wars over there, Had battles he must face here. But they couldn't compare with the anguish , In his little girls tears. He dropped crutches, as knelt On his only knee. Said I love you daughter, Please believing in me. I love you my girl, Believe in me. STOP THE RAIN con't Chorus) If I could stop the rain... If I could ease her heartache. If I could dry the tears, Rolling down her pretty face. The sun would shine again, If I could stop the rain. Bridge) I can't see these things through God's eyes. I believe he will lead to love past the pain. With faith and a little trust, Together... we can stop the rain. Chorus) We can stop the rain... We can ease the heartache. We can dry the tears, and blow the clouds away. Breath in faith, breath out love. And we can stop the rain. Tag Together, we can stop the rain. Together, we can stop the rain.
