Rain from the Cloudless Sky
When on the tempestuous sea of life
The ship of your soul sails
When the only path upon which you tread
Leads straight into the storm
Always remember this my friend,
You cannot stop the heart from being broken
Or keep back your tears
When it floods the brim of your eyes
Gold must endure the cruelest flames
If it will become something precious
The greater the height the eagle covet
The greater the storm she must withstand
Never bend your kneels in surrender
Or throw your hands in resignation
You don't need to see a gathered cloud
Before you expect the rain
The thickest darkness
Usually heralds the arrival of the dawn
You may have nothing to fight back
But you should never ever give up
