Lyric Wednesday

I love music. It's another level of speech and communication with me. Wednesdays are simply going to be dedicated to the lyrics from songs on my playlists. Songs that uplift me, speak to my sorrow, bring me joy, make me want to dance, remind me of others, relate to my life, or bring to life my dreams and wishes.  Today we'll start with: "Red Umbrella"  I love to walk in the rain. I have a red umbrella. Double smile.

Red Umbrella

Faith Hill

Sometimes life can get a little dark.

I'm sure I've got bruises on my heart.

Here come the black clouds full of pain.

Yeah, you can break away without the chains.

Your love is like a red umbrella.

Walk the streets like Cinderella,

everyone can see it on my face.

So let it rain, it's pouring all around me.

Let it fall, it ain't gonna drown me

after all, I'm gonna be okay, so let it rain.

You can wear your sorrow like an old raincoat.

You can save your tears in a bottle made of gold

but the glitter on the sidewalk always shines.

Yeah, even God needs to cry sometimes.

Your love is like a red umbrella

always there to make me better

when my broken dreams are fallin from the sky.

Let it rain, it's pouring all around me.

Let it fall, it ain't gonna drown me

after all, I'm gonna be okay, so let it rain.

Let it wash my tears away,

tomorrow's another day...

So let it rain, it's pouring all around you.

Let it fall, it ain't gonna drown you.

After all, I'm gonna be okay, so let it rain.

Oh, let it rain, let it fall, I'm gonna be okay, so let it rain.

Oh, let it rain...
