After The Rain

Look in the mirror girl, by now you should know
You're living in a fantasy, and you can't let go
He never really loved you from the start
The only thing he ever gave you was a broken heart
Don't be afraid to lose what was never meant to be
After the rain washes away the tears
And all the pain
Only after the rain
Can you live again
I know the emptiness you feel inside
You're thinking if you break away, you'll never survive
I'm waiting as my heart beats just for you
Come on and take my hand and i'll pull you through
But things will never change until you want them to
After the rain washes away the tears
And all the pain
Only after the rain
Can you live again
You'll see the sun appear to light the way
Only after the rain
Can you hope to find true love again
He never really loved you from the start
The only thing he ever gave you was a broken heart
Come on and take my hand and i'll pull you through
You know the time has come for you to face the truth
After the rain washes away the tears
And all the pain
Only after the rain
Can you live again
You'll see the sun appear to light the way
Only after the rain
Can you hope to find true love again
After the rain

Sure took your time
I've been waiting here so long
But you keep tellin' me
To just hold on

But now your back
But you'll be leavin' me again
Oh i just want your love
But you just need a friend

And with a wounded heart
You come to me
For a best friend's advice
And sympathy

Oh if i could
Keep one heart from breakin'
Keep one heart from makin'
A big mistake
It'd be yours

Oh if i could
Keep one heart from breakin'
Keep one heart from makin'
If i could keep
One heart
It'd be yours

Stop standin' there
Won't you open up your mind
Darlin' don't you take too long
Because my heart's on the line

Just close your eyes
And think of you and i alone
And how i've wanted you
And how my love for you has grown

If i could have one wish
I'd set you free
From you holdin' him
Instead of me
Oh if i could
Keep one heart from breakin'
Keep one heart from makin'
A big mistake
It'd be yours

Oh if i could
Keep one heart from breakin'
Keep one heart from makin'
If i could keep
One heart
It'd be yours

You can't deny it
It's the same empty feeling, day after day
You've been waiting forever
For someone to come and take you away
I understand how it feels to be lonely
Like it's you against the world
But if you come take my hand we can face it together
Oh i give you my word
I can take you to heaven
Come along for the ride

Chorus:
Let me fill you up with love tonight
Give you all of my love
Fill you up and make you come alive
I know you feel like giving up
But now, is the time
To open up your wings and fly high
So let me fill you up with love tonight
I know it ain't easy
It seems out of reach and beyond your control
But don't you give up on dreaming
Don't settle for less when you want so much more
Open your eyes up to what you've been missing
Life's been passing you by
But if you follow your heart it will all come together
So stop your cying
Oh - i can lead you to heaven
Come along for the ride

Chorus

Yesterday a sad goodbye
I told you that it wouldn't be for long
But it seems like a thousand years since i've been gone
Oh, what i'd give to hold you in my arms
Can't you see how much i need you tonight
I'm going crazy girl, can't get you off of my mind
Everyday that i live without you
I just can't help but dream about you
Everywhere i go
And after all the love that i've left behind me
You're the one i keep inside me
Everywhere i go....i get that feeling
It's hard to be so far apart
When thoughts of you keep coming on so strong
I picture you in every face i see
Now i know i left a part of me back home with you
There's nothing like falling for the very first time
I won't forget you girl, for the rest of my life
Everyday that i live without you
I just can't help but dream about you
Everywhere i go
And after all the love that i've left behind me
You're the one i keep inside me
Everywhere i go
I get that feeling...
Everywhere i go
I get that feeling
You're with me everywhere i go
Everyday that i live without you
I just can't help but dream about you
Everywhere i go
And after all the love that i've left behind me
You're the one i keep inside me
Everywhere i go
So when you're feeling lonely baby keep on shining
You'll always be here right beside me
Everywhere i go

No use pretending, lets tell it like it is
You just took advantage when i gave all i had to give
After one too many battles i got tired of the fight
Each time we were together was just like walking on thin ice
Couldn't make it happen, no matter how i tried
Decided it's impossible to keep you satisfied
Our love was like a candle slowly dyin' in the wind
You can't hold on when the feelings gone now we've finally
Reached the end
I step out of the darkness and leave it all behind
Ooh

I always will remember- those sultry desert nights
(our) hearts burning with a passion- whoa, it's never felt so
Right
It was meant to last forever- but when i reached out you were
Gone
It's taken time to mend this broken heart and forget you done me
Wrong

Break:
Now you're back after all this time
You've rewakened all the feelings that i've tried so hard to
Hide- but baby-

Chorus:
Will you love me like you loved me yesterday?
That's all i need to know
Will you love me like you loved me yesterday?
Or will you just let me go?
We could leave the pain behind us- take a shot at love again-
We could fool ourselves believing that our love would never end-
I've been missing you- whoa- what should i do?
Did you really have a change of heart or are you playing me for a
Fool?
Break:
You don't have to tell me where you've been
But there is one thing i've gotta know before i let you in- baby-

Chorus

Here she comes, just like an angel
Seems like forever that she's been on my mind
But nothing has changed
She thinks i'm a waste if her time
There she goes, she don't know what she's missing
Can't she see i'll never give up the fight
I'll do all i can till she understands my desire
I'm on the outside looking in
Let me into your heart
