A Gift for Me


Standing in the falling rain with no sunshine anywhere around,

Staying in the only shade from rain I’m in sync with the sound,

Raindrops make magic sounds that feel like love should be near,

Isn’t it funny how everything I do makes we wish you were here,

 

And when you come walking towards me from the setting sun,

The sun behind your head glows to highlight you as a holy one,

Come hold my hand and lean against me as I hide from the rain,

Isn’t this a shiny day when your in my hold, I no longer feel pain,

 

Closed my eyes for a moment or two to awaken to a sunshine day,

I can feel your love in the silence of the moment with nothing to say,

To feel your breath upon my chest is a miracle I can never repay,

So many times the end has drawn near to depart so we can play,

 

Standing in the sunshine with you I thank God for every moment,

I want Him to know that I stand in His glory to escape the torment,

To be sent into your arms every time desperation came near to be,

The greatest gift (you) God could give a man He has given to me.
