Let the Rain…

come down, make a brand new ground…

Sara Bareilles writes brilliant lyrics. I started to quote a small chunk of this beautiful song on my twitter before realizing that I just love the whole thing, so here it is, in all its glory:

Wish I were pretty

Wish I were brave

If I owned this city

I’d make it behave

If I were fearless

I’d speak my truth

The world would hear this

That’s what I wish

I’d do

Yeah-eh, Yeah-eh-eh

Yeah-eh-eh Yeah-eh-eh

If my hands could hold them

You’d see it

Take all these secrets

In me

And I’d move and mold them

To be

Something I’d set free

I wanna darken the skies

Open the floodgates up

I wanna change my mind

I wanna be enough

I want the water in my eyes

I want to cry until the end of time

I wanna let the rain

Come down

Make a brand new ground

Let the rain

Come down

Let the rain

Come down

Make a brand new ground

Let the rain come down

Tonight

I hold on to worry

So tight
