The Rain
Christi Warner Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Aahe, aahe, ahe?
Keep hoping
Aahe, aahe, ahe?
Change will always come
Aahe, aahe,
Keep hoping,
(feels like the rain won?t come)
Help is closer than you think
Keep hoping.
Soon you?ll fly again, shine again, fly again
(feels like the rain won?t come).
The rain will come!
