After the Rain

All your life of scramble and scurry

Take your time rather than hurry

Never too late to write the best of your story

Remember to breathe, or else you're gonna be sorry

Life's no race, it's a companion

And always face with reckless abandon

The ticket to life, as my mother once told me

Stick with your pride and you're gonna be lonely (Gonna be lonely)

Everybody says that life takes patience

But nobody wants to wait

Everybody says we need salvation

But nobody wants to be a saint

The light in the tunnel

It's just another runaway train

The blue skies we wait on

Are gonna have to come after the rain

Spend your days, happy and grateful

Boy the taste of wanting ain't wasteful

Every good thing will come in moderation

Envy and greed will only lead to frustration

Choose your friends, carefree and kindly

Choose your words, careful and wisely

Always be there to lend a comforting shoulder

One will be there to share a day when you're older (Day when you're older)

Everybody says that life takes patience

But nobody wants to wait

Everybody says we need salvation

But nobody wants to be a saint

The light in the tunnel

It's just another runaway train

The blue skies we wait on

Are gonna have to come after the rain

All mistakes committed upon us

Always take a toll on the conscience

Every regret is a debt that you live with

Never forget to remember forgiveness

Everybody says that life takes patience

But nobody wants to wait

Everybody says we need salvation

But nobody wants to be a saint

The light in the tunnel

It's just another runaway train

The blue skies we wait on

Are gonna have to come after the rain

Gonna have to come after the rain

Rain

Gonna have to come after the rain

Rain

Rain, rain

Rain

Gonna have to come after the rain
