Sometimes life beats you down and you go two steps forward and one step back
You can cry in the storm where no one can hear you or you can dance in the rain
When everything comes crashing down and washes you away
Will you cry in the storm or will you dance in the rain
Will you stand by the fire or get burnt by the flames
Me I’ll be dancing in the rain by the fire
Even when life comes crashing down spilled tears affect nothing
They might bring some sweet release, but they accomplish nothing
I’ll dance my rain dance asking for more rain to cleanse my soul even as my hearts breaking
Because I love the rain even when the sky is falling
I’d rather dance in the rain than cry my eyes out
And I’d rather warm myself by the flames of my life burning down than allow myself to get burnt by the flames
Even when it seems there is no hope when it all comes crashing down
Maybe that’s what you need a clean slate to rebuild
Because your life was a house of cards built upon shifting sands
I’ll dance in the rain while rebuilding my life feeling the rain wash away the soot and ash
Letting the healing rain sooth my weary soul
When everything comes crashing down
You can dance in the rain or cry in the storm
But the tears accomplish little so I’ll dance in the rain
While sifting through the ashes for anything worth keeping
So come dance with me in the rain
And rebuild your life while dancing in the rain
