About the song
There's always an end to the storm...
This song is about a love that didn't quite make it - but, as the song says, the sun always shines again. The primary motivation behind the song (like several of my songs) is HOPE. As I wrote in "Things Change", these songs are really all about things changing for the better. No matter WHAT your circumstances.

Lyrics
The sun sets on the city
As it has upon our love
The light that shown so brightly
No longer shines above.
The dim lit stars in the night sky
Just beyond our grasp
So it was with you and I
We knew it couldn't last.
(Chorus)
But I know and you know
That the sun always shines again
Through the darkest clouds
Never to end.
And I know that even
in the darkest of nights
There's still a star
Shining its own light.
The clouds are just a cover
For the beauty of the sky
Temporary and blown over
In the wink of an eye.
And just beyond the raging storm
Hidden in our minds
Lies a perfect rainbow
One we just can't seem to find.
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
(Chorus)
As it has upon our love
The light that shown so brightly
No longer shines above.
The dim lit stars in the night sky
Just beyond our grasp
So it was with you and I
We knew it couldn't last.
(Chorus)
But I know and you know
That the sun always shines again
Through the darkest clouds
Never to end.
And I know that even
in the darkest of nights
There's still a star
Shining its own light.
The clouds are just a cover
For the beauty of the sky
Temporary and blown over
In the wink of an eye.
And just beyond the raging storm
Hidden in our minds
Lies a perfect rainbow
One we just can't seem to find.
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
(Chorus)
