Children Of Eden movie - Stranger to the Rain lyrics

rate me

<br>

YONAH<br>

<br>

Shed no tears for me<br>

There'll be rain enough today<br>

I'm wishing you godspeed<br>

As I wave you on your way<br>

This won't be the first time<br>

I've stayed behind to face<br>

The bitter consequences<br>

Of an ancient fall from grace<br>

I'm a daughter of the race of Cain<br>

I am not a stranger to the rain<br>

<br>

Orphan in the storm<br>

That's a role I've played before<br>

I've learned not to tremble<br>

When I hear the thunder roar<br>

I don't curse what I can't change<br>

I just play the hand I'm dealt<br>

When they lighten up the rations<br>

I tighten up my belt<br>

I won't say I've never felt the pain<br>

But I am not a stranger to the rain<br>

<br>

And for the boy who's given me the sweetest love I know<br>

I wish for you another love so you won't be alone<br>

Because I am bound to walk among the wounded and the slain<br>

And when the storm comes crashing on the plain<br>

I will dance before the lightning to music sacred and profane<br>

<br>

Oh, shed no tears for me<br>

Light no candle for my sake<br>

This journey I'll be making<br>

Is one we all must make<br>

Shoulder to the wind<br>

I'll turn my face into the spray<br>

And when the heavens open<br>

Let the drops fall where they may<br>

If they finally wash away the stain<br>

From a daughter of the race of Cain<br>

I am not a stranger to the rain<br>

<br>

Let it rain<br>

<br>
