In The Rain

It was raining on me
I told myself to stand
But I had to kneel down
On the ground place my hand

The rain came down harder
I told myself to stay
I wanted to be strong enough
But on the dirt, I lay

Covered in mud then
I told myself do not cry
But the tears did not listen
As they fell from my eyes

I wanted to give up
I told myself it was over
But suddenly like lightning
You pulled me up by my shoulders

How I was weak
And weary, friend
But you gave me
The chance to live again

I've learned many things
But this one is true
When it does rain
I'll hold on to you.
