I See Her Walking in the Rain Again

I see her walking in the rain again
But I can’t find the courage to offer her a ride
Missed opportunities of pain and regret
I can try to run but I can never hide
From the painful shyness that cripples me inside

A whirlwind romance going on in my head
But when the fantasy ends, all that’s left is a bleak reality
My mind is open but my lips are sealed
I can find the words but I can’t say them out loud
Just the thought of rejection, sends shivers down my spine

You’ll never know how much it means to me
When I turn around and feel your warm embrace
That gut sensation that entices me
Is like a mother’s love to her child
A helping hand that’s always around

Some wait for fate while others make their own luck
Well I’ve waited so long, and let so many chances slip away
I’ve made mistakes but, not nearly enough
I feel my life’s been tortured, by ifs and whats and buts
Now I’m bestowed by your presence
I hope you’re here to stay

You’ll never know how much it means to me
When I turn around and feel your warm embrace
That gut sensation that entices me
Is like a mother’s love to her child
A helping hand that’s always around

I’m surrendering to the moment
For the first time in my life
I can feel you all around me
I feel alive

Yeah Yeah Yeah

All those years of searching
Were worth it in the end

I see her walking in the rain again
And I pull right over, to offer her a ride
She hops right in and then she kisses my cheek
I turn my head towards her, and then I see her smile
With my life completed
My struggle was worthwhile
