It Rained Again Last Night

It rained again last night
You know we used to love that sound
From gentle rhythm to pounding surf
Weaving memories in my mind

I guess you decided to save yourself,
No sense two of us going down
But that's not, had we had it planned
And now you can't be found

The streets are wet again
Used to believe rain brought new life
But now I see when hope is dead
Breathing is all that remains


When laughter has slipped away to hide
And the nights go on and on
Deep in the prison of darkness
You appeared, waiting for my sigh

Seeking just to breathe
Needing help to stand
You were always there to turn to

When hope has fled
And dreams can't be found
You were always there to turn to

His Word alone can bring you life
He proved His love long ago
On a lonely hill called Calvary
Dying for an enemy only He could love

How could I have left that truth - pushed aside?
There is no treasure worth that exchange
His grace and patience is immeasurable
He alone is destined to reign

Seeking just to breathe
Needing help to stand
You were always there to turn to

When hope has fled
And dreams can't be found
You were always there to turn to
