I love a rainy night.
No moon and stars in sight.
Anxieties I have.
The rain makes it alright.

I love a rainy night.
When cold and all alone.
The rain disguises tears.
It covers all the wrong.

At peace when I hear thunder.
This may make you wonder.
It's not strange nor am I weird.
It makes my fears go under.

I love a rainy night.
I lay down in its sight.
Take a rest from the test.
This test that we call life.

Going by the book.
That stuff just will not do.
But watching rain eases stress.
I watch and think of you.

I love a rainy night.
I'll take it whenever I can.
I'll take this remedy of love.
Just stay and hold my hand.

I've gotten over depression. Gotten over strife.
But one thing I can't get or take back in this life.

A word after it's said. Spoke what's in my head.
Regret what I did. At any cost I got ahead.

I've fought the good fight. Have clear view in sight.
But two things I can't get or take back in this life.

A word after it's said. Trust after it's lost.
Betrayed and both cheated. Anything at its cost.

Listen,

You can be on top of the world. Flying high as a kite.
But three things you can't get or take back in this life.

The moment after it's missed. A word after it's said.
The time after it's wasted. So stop and think ahead.

Four things you can't recover. No, I make that five.
Learn this lesson please. If you want to fly.

A stone after it's thrown. A word after it's said.
Time after it's gone. Imprint these in your head.

Trust after it's lost. An occasion after it's missed.
Learn this precious lesson. You'll fulfill your every wish.
