Before the Rain

We knew it wasn't meant to be but didn't care 'bout right or wrong

That was then, just you and me, inside a world we don't belong

But even then I understood that you would need to walk away

And regrets, perhaps we should, but for me all I can say is that was

Before the rain came down

Before the waters rose around

Before promises made were lost

Before we stopped to count the cost

The love we made, the dances danced

Those moments still remain before the rain

We danced each night into the next so that the day would never come

Trying to end it as the best to keep ahead of setting suns

Now looking back, it never mattered

Play with fate, you're going to lose

Our world was destined to be shattered by the hopes we dared to choose

But that was before the rain came down

Before the waters rose around

Before promises made were lost

Before we stopped to count the cost

The love we made, the dances danced

Those moments still remain before the rain

The rain washed away our hopes with truth

That both of us had lives committed to

I close my eyes and reminisce and hold on to our one last kiss

Before the rain came down

Before the waters rose around

Before promises made were lost

Before we stopped to count the cost

The love we made, the dances danced

Those moments still remain before the rain

Before the rain

Before the rain

Before the rain
