Rain Over My Porch

The rain is falling on my old wooden porch. Like memories knocking on a forgotten door. Your name is written in the cracks of the Floor. A love I can't hold anymore. The rocking chair moves with the Midnight wind. Reminding me of where we had been. I hear your laughter in the pouring rain. But I know things will never be the Same. Rain over my porch, Tears falling from the sky. Washing away the love we lost, And the reasons why. I'm sitting here with an empty chair, Talking to a ghost that isn't there. The storm may come, the night may stay, But I'll find my strength another day. The old guitar is leaning by the wall. Playing the songs we used to call ours. Every note carries a little pain. Every chord brings back your name. Oh, I gave you my heart, I gave you My soul. But some loves are never meant to Grow old. Now I'm learning through the falling rain. How to smile through the pain. Rain over my porch, Tears falling from the sky. Washing away the love we lost, And the reasons why. I'm sitting here with an empty chair, Talking to a ghost that isn't there. The storm may come, the night may stay, But I'll find my strength another Day. Let the thunder tell my story, Let the river take my tears. I survived all the lonely nights. I survived all these years. Rain over my porch, But the sun will shine again. The blues may walk beside me, But they won't become my end. I'll keep the memories, But I'll leave behind the pain. Standing on my porch, Dancing In the rain.
