Let It Rain

While watching the movie Patch Adams the other day, I was reminded how much I really love this song from Eric Clapton. :)

Let It Rain

The rain is falling through the mist of sorrow that surrounded me.
The sun could never thaw away the bliss that laid around me.

Let it rain, let it rain,
Let your love rain down on me.
Let it rain, let it rain,
Let it rain, rain, rain.

Her life was like a desert flower burning in the sun.
Until I found the way to love, it's harder said than done.

Chorus

Now I know the secret; there is nothing that I lack.
If I give my love to you, you'll surely give it back.

Chorus

(My) Desert Rose

They say it blooms once, every thousand years.
With little rain, like drops of tears.

It's color shines with a ruby red.
Alone, it's beauty in a land that's dead.

The heat of the sun could turn the sand into glass.
Still the Rose shines on, like you, my lovely lass.

In a time of uncertainty, your radiance holds bright.
A magical aura, a beautiful sight.

Much like the Rose, you hold your own.
Keeping your cool, in a blazing zone.

So stand there forever, and strike a pose.
My love, my darling, MY DESERT ROSE.
