Your Voice in the Rain

Rain came down this evening Like the sky had something to say I stood out on the porch And let it wash the day away Every drop kept falling Like a whisper through the pain And somewhere in that storm I swear I heard your name

The old folks say the thunder Carries voices through the sky

Your voice in the rain Falling soft through the night Like a prayer from the heavens In the pale lantern light Every drop keeps telling me You’re not that far away I hear you in the thunder In your voice in the rain

The road is slick with midnight And the fields bend in the storm The same hills that watched us Ride through summers warm But the wind keeps talking Through the rusted gate Like you’re just beyond the dark Somewhere past the rain

Maybe heaven's closer On nights like this

Your voice in the rain Falling soft through the night Like a prayer from the heavens In the pale lantern light Every drop keeps telling me You’re not that far away I hear you in the thunder In your voice in the rain

The Romans wrote their heroes In marble cold and tall But the bravest souls I ever knew Left echoes in us all Maybe love’s a river That the storm can’t break apart Maybe heaven speaks sometimes Through the cracks in a heart

So I stand in the rain now Let the cold water fall

Your voice in the rain Calling soft through the storm Like a fire still burning Keeping lost riders warm And when the sky finally clears And the long night fades away I’ll still hear you whisper Through the voice in the rain
