Can’t Stop The Downpour

( words and music by Peggy Mann)

 

He used to know her, she used to know him too

He knew everything about her

And she knew him too… through and through

 

But the years went by and there were lies

And there was lots of cryin too

So what are you gonna, what are you gonna

What are ya, what are ya, what are ya gonna do?

 

It’s stormy weather, the wind is blowin too

The clouds have gathered, the sky has turned dark blue

 

There’s been a lot of trouble and there’s been a lot of pain

And she can’t stop the downpour, but she’ll walk with you… Through the rain, through the rain, through the rain

 

He works his program, she works her program too

And they’re kneeling by the bedside just prayin…

Just trying to make it through

 

And there’s friends who care and friends who shared

And some of them have been through this too

So what are you gonna, what are you gonna

What are ya, what are ya, what are ya gonna do?

 

The skies are clearing, the sun is breaking through

But the ground’s still wet and God’s not through with you

 

There’s been a lot of trouble and there’s been a lot of pain

And she can’t stop the downpour, but she’ll walk with you… Through the rain, through the rain, through the rain
