# To Catch The Rain - Lionel Zivan Valdellon

01
Just before the rain starts to fall from a sadly graying sky —
As pale as the emptiness within me–
That’s when I start to think of you
And everything around me seems to fade away.

PRE-CHORUS
Unprepared for the way you left me,
I’m afraid I was less than what you wanted me to be.
I want you back in my arms but the fear still remains in my mind.

CHORUS
In my outstretched hand I try to catch the rain
But never seem to get enough of sweet heaven’s waters.
In my heart, I try to hold on
But your love slips like shadows through thin, shaking fingers.

02
Just before the sun disappears into the bleeding sky —
As wounded as my eyes seem to be —
That’s when I start to think of you,
And something deep inside of me seems to give way.

PRE-CHORUS
All the words we shared run through me;
Your anger still haunts my memory.
I know the words that I wanted to say
but the walls that you built will not die.

[CHORUS]

BRIDGE
There is no peace in memory.
Your gaze pierces right through my sanity.
I see your face burning bright in my dreams,
And your smile brings the pain back to life.

[CHORUS]
