The Rain - Carlene Carter

How long 
Has it been dear 
Since we felt the rain 
Endless were our summers 
Until the weather changed 
Our love was lifted like a harvest 
No winter in your eyes 
Now cold winds cut Right through us 
And so the harvest dies 

Stranded and lost without you 
My pain lives in this house 
It's like your heart here 
Empty and cold dear 
My wild birds flying south 
I know that you can hear me 
Crying 
Where did I 
Go wrong 
What brought this storm 
Into your heart 
After loving me so long 

Someday 
Maybe you'll blame 
All this on the rain 
But until then 
Love's the one thing 
I'll never feel again 
And after all my tears have 
Drowned me 
And nothing else 
Remains 
I'll be one step short of heaven 
Seeking shelter from the rain 
Someday 
Maybe you'll blame 
All this on the rain 
But until then 
Love's the one thing 
I'll never feel again
