Passing Parade © Sun PK

Rain, so much rain - falling all around
Falling for so long - covering the ground
You stilled the down pour just enough to cast
My eyes into the silence of a looking glass
Rain, so much rain - seemed like all I got
Seemed all I could see - was all that I had not
You stilled my heart just enough to show
The spaces in between the drops were places I could go

Chorus:

Through my window all I used to see
Was a passing parade passing by me
Now as I lift my head up high
I can see the stars in the sky
And somehow I no longer have to feel afraid
There’s nothing I miss
In a passing parade

Rain, so much rain – washing away
Washing from inside – sorrows from a distant day
You stilled my thoughts just so I could hear
The thunder wasn’t anything for me to fear
And you stilled me ‘til you knew I had begun
To see that all along I’d been standing in the sun

Chorus

Bridge:

And you left when you knew I didn’t need you anymore
And I could never show you all I’m thankful for

Chorus
