Born in a dry season   Wind and sand have blown through me   Haven't found shade anywhere   Only moments of relief   But sometimes I think I hear the thunder   Somewhere on the horizon line   If i could just find a way to get under   The rain that can reach this soul of mine      (chorus)   I pray for rain to come   And wash away what's made me numb   I pray for a ragging storm   To drown what's in me   And the rain comes in the nick of time   I swallow hard cause my throat's been dry   The rain comes beating on my skin   Till I'm washed away - nothing left within   When the rain comes   Your rain comes      Seasons have passed so quickly   Since I felt that first big storm   Still there have been times of drought   When i've prayed for the clouds to form   And I often hear the thunder   And I know of its coming rain   Many times in my life I'll kneel under   The moving showers that brought this change      (chorus 2x)
