This is a song of encouragement for every one of who, in one way or another, for one reason or another, has learned to dance in the rain.

lyrics

"RAINDANCER"

1. It's gonna take time,
But it's gonna be all right
You might feel like you've fallen behind
Or like you've lost your will to fight
It might hurt for a long, long time
And you might never feel the same
But you're still here and here you stand
So much stronger than the rain
Sometimes rain can carve even stone
For the stone stands ever still
You're so much more than flesh and bone
And no-one dances, standing still

2. There's a light that won't be dimmed
A sacred fire that won't burn out
Where your Song's a holy hymn
Where you never go without
It might hurt for a long, long time
And you may never *be* the same
But you're stronger than the stone
You're a dancer in the rain
It might feel like you're going through hell
And denied your share of love (but feel this)
All the rain that ever fell:
Healing water from Above

3. And the water will always come home
From ocean floor to high expanse
Quenching thirst and carving stone
Timeless mover of the Dance
Though the Tune has never been free
And sometimes you dance alone
Your Song has always been
Ringing loud the strains of home
But only to those with ears to hear
And blessed with hearts that feel
Raindancer, never fear
These rains were sent to heal
They can heal

Chorus:

Raindancer
(Dancing in the Rain)
Dancing through the Rain
Raindancer
(No more doubt or shame)
Dance like no-one's watching
Raindancer
(Pushing through the pain)
Pushing through the burning pain
Raindancer
(Dancing in the Rain)
No more doubt, no more shame
Raindancer
(Dancing in the Rain)
There's a light that won't be dimmed
Raindancer
(Dancing in the Rain)
A sacred fire that won't burn out
Raindancer
(Dancing in the Rain)
You're every Song's a holy hymn
Raindancer
(Dancing in the Rain)
And no one ever goes without
(Raindancer
We can walk upon the water
Raindancer
(Dancing in the Rain)
Fly above the pouring rain
Raindancer
(Dancing in the Rain)
Face the lightening and the thunder
Raindancer
There'll be no more doubt and no more shame ..
