Story Behind The Song

Although I wrote this song over 20 years ago it reflects a person going through hard times at any point in their life. This song is most inspirational to me as my wife died of cancer this past year and the song has helped me understand I'm on the right trail, and actually describes how I have met someone who is a big part of my life, she is my wings

Song Description

The song is about a persom walking in the rain in despair as the rain is battering them through to there soul. Then as time unfolds they feel the glory of a higher power through that same rain,,,that gives them a wonderful gift.

WALKING IN THE RAIN


AS I WAS WALKING DOWN THE STREET
MY FACE TURNED FROM THE SLEET
WONDERING WHO I MIGHT MEET
AS RAIN POURED ON MY FEET

WALKING,,,,WALKING,,,,,WALKING
IN THE RAIN

THE WIND BLEW COLD AROUND MY SOUL
I'M LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO GO
LORD HELP ME I'M SO LOW,,,
WHAT IS IT THAT I DON'T KNOW

WALKING,,,,WALKING,,,,,WALKING
IN THE RAIN

I'M LIKE THE PATTER ON THE GROUND
OH,OH, THAT LONSEOME SOUND
ISN'T THERE SOMEONE AROUND
THAT CAN HELP ME HAVE MY HEART BE FOUND

WALKING,,,,WALKING,,,,,WALKING
IN THE RAIN

I TURN AROUND AND THERE YOU ARE
SAFE AND WARM INSIDE YOUR CAR
YOU LOOK AT ME BUT I'M NOT THERE
I HANG MY HEAD MY MIND SOMEWHERE

WALKING,,,,WALKING,,,,,WALKING
IN THE RAIN

AS TIME GOES BY I SEE YOUR EYES
MY HEART LOOKS UP INTO THE SKIES
I WONDER WHY HE'D EVEN TRY
TO SEND ME WINGS WHEN I CAN'T FLY

WALKING,,,,WALKING,,,,,WALKING
IN THE RAIN

AS RAIN COMES OVER ME AGAIN
I DON'T KNOW WHY I DON'T KNOW WHEN
MY HEART CAN FEEL RIGHT THROUGH MY SKIN
AND I FEEL HIS RAIN COME RIGHT IN

WALKING,,,,WALKING,,,,,WALKING
IN THE RAIN

SIDE BY SIDE WE WALK IT NOW
OVER AGAIN HE SHOWS US HOW
TO FEEL IT ALL WITH BOTH OUR EYES
AND SEE THE BEAUTY OF OUR LIVES

WALKING,,,,WALKING,,,,,WALKING
IN THE RAIN

WALKING,,,,WALKING,,,,,WALKING
IN THE RAIN
