Let it Fall

V1

When the dark sky falls down
I’m washed beneath its curse
How many times must I drown
Before I’m finished with the hurt

I thought I had forgotten
But it all came rushing in
When the rolling sound of thunder
Reminded me again

Chorus

So let it fall
let it fall from the skies
let it wash away the pain
like the tears from my eyes
I won’t melt
I won’t let it break me down
I’ve got one last tear to shed
Before I turn this pain around
So let it fall

V2

Blue skies gave way to gray
As you looked at me that night
More than your lips could ever say
I saw there in your eyes

I swore we’d last forever
But storms of life rushed in
Now that sudden change of weather
Reminds me once again

Chorus

So let it fall
let it fall from the skies
wash away the pain & doubt
like these tears from my eyes
Let it fall
‘cause I won’t let it break me down
I’ve got one last tear to shed
Before I turn this pain around
So let it fall

Bridge

I could close my eyes and still feel
Your touch against my skin
Your breath against my lips
But it’s time I move on,
Time to just be strong

half chorus?

So let it fall
Let the clouds cry out your name
Let the drops fall like my tears
Til no memories remain
Let it fall
