[Male Vocalist] [Instrumental Fades In] [Mono]
[Intro]
DON’T- run from the rain,
Don’t run from the rain,
When-YOUR heart is in pain,
Don’t run from the pain,
As flower petals, fall on this stage
Don’t run from the rain,
A gem lost in the valley
[Chorus]
I’ve done all I could do, for a person who won’t change,
I tried to be gentle, I tried to be patient,
I tried to be a lover,
I tried to be careful
I tried to be faithful,
I tried to be whole and full,
I tried to be your shelter,
I tried to be better, better for you.
[Verse]
But you never changed for me,
You never changed for me,
You never thought that it could be you,
Why you never changed for me, You never even tried
I done all I could do, for a person who won’t change.
The story of breakups,
A man has to pack his bags,
Forced to go out on his own,
A moment in the valley,
My petals began to fall,
I was removed from the sun,
And forgetting to drink my water,
When I’ve done all I could do, for a person who won’t change.
I tried to be gentle, I tried to be patient,
I tried to be a lover,
I tried to be careful
I tried to be faithful,
I tried to be whole and full,
I tried to be your shelter,
I tried to be better, better for you.
But you never changed for me,
You never changed for me,
You never thought that it could be you,
Why you never changed for me, You never even tried
I done all I could do, for a person who won’t change.
[Verse]
As I sit in solitude,
Surrounded by all of my assets,
That fit inside this studio,
With room left to walk around,
Then a question posed,
Could it be you?
Feeling hesitant to step out on a limb,
Could it be you?
Being fed by the company I keep,
Could it be you?
Walking by the falling petals on the land,
Could it be you?
I’m just a man who wasn’t taught how to love.
DON’T- run from the rain,
Don’t run from the rain,
When-YOUR heart is in pain,
Don’t run from the pain,
As flower petals, fall on this stage
Don’t run from the rain,
A gem lost in the valley
I’ve done all I could do, for a person who won’t change,
I tried to be gentle, I tried to be patient,
I tried to be a lover,
I tried to be careful
I tried to be faithful,
I tried to be whole and full,
I tried to be your shelter,
I tried to be better, better for you.

[Intro]
Than…………..Late One Day
[Outro]
I found a gem in myself,
When my love lost became my past,
I went searching for my Lilly in the valley,
Religion always by my side,
Moving quietly and invisible,
Passing by soft like a wind,
When I stopped being blind,
Opened my eyes to see,
My problem laid within,
Dimming my light,
Contaminating my body wearing old garments on my sleeves,
I scrubbed in the gospel,
&& I came out half clean,
Because apart of me is still poisoned,
But I'm not a fool anymore,
That day we can finally exhale,
Hopefully we all can rest in peace,
Especially the gems who are left to find themselves,
Lost in the valley
Heartsoul
