Rainy Day Roses - Lyrics Robert George - Music Chris Dasch
When the sky is sad and grey
it's been weeping all day
I wipe fog from the windowpane
For right outside there grows
A solitary rose
That rises more with each rain
'Cause rainy day roses
Don't give way to sorrow
Their beauty heals a lonesome heart
They know the rain won't last
And when it's past
There's a new day tomorrow
Now the clouds have moved on
In the bright rays of dawn
A ribbon of color forms
Red in sunrise rainbows
Seems born from that lone rose
Standing proudly through the storms
So when my will is weak
Salty rain wets my sad cheek
And I feel I'd rather fall
I see the rose in my yard
How when it's raining hard
That's when it's time to stand tall
