Started walking on the path that life was leading A destination chosen, not by myself alone I was following willingly Dreams of a new road, I could see My destination waiting, but I chose to rest as the drops began to fall Heavy with the weight of the world through misery I long for the calm before the rain I long for the calm before the rain The rain colours the lonely with a need to touch the sky but Here you'll find me through the looking glass I know the feeling well enough The sun gets left out in the cold There's always calm before the downpour I must be prepared and bold The sounds of the past will soon be heard Like bombs, They fall again and the heavens burst with remorse and regret I long for the calm before the rain I long for the calm before the rain The rain colours the lonely with a need to touch the sky It's weaving your heart with faith when the comfort of Your lines are crossed and all of your pages have been turned Here you'll find me through the looking glass Now I won't wait for that storm to pass I left it behind, and walked away unsure if it will last I can never get back what I chose to throw away Choices made without the heart, now despised The rain colours the lonely with a need to touch the sky It's weaving your heart with faith when the comfort of Your lines are crossed and all of your pages have been turned Here you'll find me through the looking glass Rains arrival I await now with pleasure Cleansing drops now become my treasure I scream out and the heavens tear
