My world didn’t look the same this morning, ya see the colors all had changed
Rearranged and started to fade to grey
It took everything I had just to stand up, out of bed, because I had no will
It could kill me just to be
But I always had a friend in you watching out for me
Nothing seems to change
The love I feel rushes out of you and washes over me
But I’m standing in the rain.
Because I create my pain
My life didn’t mean that much this morning, the history all had changed
Bent to blame the man I used to be
It took everything I had just to speak up and be heard, a self without a tie
So far behind, in just being me
But I always had a friend in you watching out for me
Nothing seems to change
And the love I feel rushes out of you and washes over me
But I’m standing in the rain.
Because I create my pain
And when the time comes and you think we both have lost it
And reality sets in this love is just shy of caustic
Pause and reflect on a very simple truth
My heart belongs to you
You’ll always have a friend in me watching over you
Regardless of life’s change
the love we feel pours out of me and is here for you
To shield you from the rain
Because I create the pain
