If ever there was a reason To dance around the sun That you may discover in time You may need to cut and run You say you like rainy weather Like they have in the Northwest Or maybe California Where everything seems best If ever there was a reason To get the lead out of your feet To the songs of saints and sinners Take the bitter with the sweet You can see the rainbows As something more than colored sky All the fury of the downpour Can be a blessing in disguise Get ahead of your demons Draw the line at your command All your forces moving forward Throw it down that hat in hand Time and tide wait for no one Put your shoulder to the wheel Give your best and take flight Use your smile as your shield You may fall on stony ground Hold the line and stay sound With the company that you keep Still waters run deep Cast your bread upon the waters Keep the love that's in your heart Use the knowledge that you gain Keep your soul as right as rain You can see the rainbows As something more than colored sky All the fury of the downpour Can be a blessing in disguise You can see the rainbows As something more than colored sky All the fury of the downpour Can be a blessing in disguise
