| Into every life, a little rain must fall
|
| Or so they say
|
| We have seen our share of storms
|
| You might agree
|
| We learned early, don’t hold tightly to
|
| The things that might not stay
|
| Love what matters
|
| And you matter most to me
|
| So when the wind blows in and carries us away
|
| This is what we say to every hurricane
|
| Love don’t need a roof
|
| Love don’t need four walls
|
| You can say my name
|
| I’ll come anytime you call
|
| So let the storms roll in
|
| Let the shingles fly
|
| Love is not the fence we built around our lives
|
| And anywhere we are, I’m alright
|
| We dig cellars, we lay sandbags
|
| Board the glass and pack the old van
|
| We heed warnings 'til we’re headed out of town
|
| But we do not always make it
|
| We are sometimes overtaken
|
| We are not as fast as every funnel cloud
|
| So when the siren sounds and when we close our eyes
|
| This is what we say to swirling skies
|
| Love don’t need a roof
|
| Love don’t need four walls
|
| You can say my name
|
| I’ll come anytime you call
|
| So let the storms roll in
|
| Let the shingles fly
|
| Love is not the fence we built around our lives
|
| And anywhere we are, I’m alright
|
| One day out in the meadow
|
| I will stop where the old oak grows
|
| I will lay some yellow flowers down for you
|
| Or maybe, you will lay them down for me
|
| And this is what we’ll say to that old tree
|
| Love don’t need a roof
|
| Love don’t need four walls
|
| You can say my name
|
| I’ll come anytime you call
|
| So let the branches bend
|
| Dance into the wind
|
| Whisper every memory to the night
|
| 'Cause anywhere we are, I’m alright |
