Rise Again Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When I find the sweet hereafter
Put a blanket on my soul
Cast a shadow on my heart
Slide the chain across my door

[Pre-Chorus]
Ever turning all the seasons
Ever fading all the days
And if there ever was a reason
I just haven't found a way

[Chorus]
To fall like rain
Fall like rain
Fall like rain
Fall like rain
Only to rise again

[Verse 2]
I was longing for the wind
When the trees begin to sway
But I never grow my wings
No, I never fly away

[Verse 3]
For the anchor of my love
To which my heart is bound
Is the iron for the cage
That keeps me on the ground
[Chorus]
To fall like rain
Fall like rain
Fall like rain
Fall like rain
Only to rise again

[Verse 4]
Now I'm dreaming to myself
With a tear behind my eye
For a shelter is my mind
In the quiet of the night

[Pre-Chorus]
Ever turning all the seasons
Ever fading all the days
And if there ever was a reason
I just haven't found a way

[Chorus]
To fall like rain
Fall like rain
Fall like rain
Fall like rain
Only to rise again
