Songtext Stop the rain The Echoing Green

Stop the rain

You walk alone, you feel alone
In the house of your heart there's no one home
From all the years and all your fears
You find the tears have been all your own

Try to hide your feelings from yourself
You put them on an emotional shelf
But they're falling off, and I think you know why...

I can hear you say you put your pain away
That you're saving it for a rainy day
Well it's storming now, it's pouring guilt and shame
And only love can stop the rain

Stop the rain, stop the rain
Heal the pain, stop the rain
Stop the rain

You cry for joy so you've got to choose
Outside you've won but inside you lose
All your self-esteem and your biggest dream
Silent screams, of emotions bruised

You say it's in the past, that the hurt won't last
You wrote a brand new script but there's still no cast
And you still feel hurt, but now it's time to heal...

I can hear you say you put your pain away
That you're saving it for a rainy day
Well it's storming now, it's pouring guilt and shame
And only love can stop the rain

Stop the rain, stop the rain
Heal the pain, stop the rain
Stop the rain

Tears are falling from your eyes
'Cause you know that He can see through your disguise
Don't be afraid to take His hand
'Cause it's pouring forgiveness

Tears are falling from your eyes
'Cause you know that He can see through your disguise
Don't be afraid to take His hand
'Cause it's pouring forgiveness

I can hear you say you put your pain away
That you're saving it for a rainy day
Well it's storming now, it's pouring guilt and shame
And only love can stop the rain

I can hear you say you put your pain away
That you're saving it for a rainy day
Well it's storming now, it's pouring guilt and shame
And only love can stop the rain...
