Don't Rain On Me
by Rick Elias

Album: Ten Stories

Please make the rain which falls from the sky fall somewhere else, on some other place out of sight,
Please, (don’t rain on me)
I pray, “Let it pour down from above on somebody else in need of your love, but keep it dry here,”
Please. (don’t rain on me)

Don’t rain on me,
I’ve got a thousand reasons why, when one would be enough,
Though I won’t justify it,
Don’t rain on me,
What you’re asking is absurd,
And what could I have done?

I’ve tasted some rain, yes, before in my time,
I didn’t care for it much,
To say I didn’t mind would be a lie,
Please, (don’t rain on me)
Brought my faith off the mountain, saw it flow to the valleys below,
You know it’s carried me far and not failed me,
I have gone everywhere your wind blows,
Now don’t…don’t rain on me.

Don’t rain on me,
I’ve got a thousand reasons why, when one would be enough,
Though I won’t justify it,
Don’t rain on me,
What you’re asking is absurd,
And what should I have done to stop that rain from falling down? (falling down)
Just don’t rain on me.

Don’t rain on me.

There’s a flame flinging shadows on my heart’s inner walls,
If I venture outside, the wick might dampen or smother,
I could fall,
Please don’t rain on me.

Don’t rain on me,
I’ve got a thousand reasons why, when one would be enough,
Though I won’t justify it,
Don’t rain on me,
What you’re asking is absurd,
And what would you have done to stop that rain from pouring down?
Well, don’t rain on me.
