First Drop of Rain

Just like the first drop of rain falls so softly

That you aren't even sure that it's so

Love can begin just as lightly

With a feeling and a thought

A smile and a glow

But the thunder in the distance

Like a restless wind will grow

And it sweeps in with a fury and a passion

And thoughts of loving you keep streaming in

Until it shows

In every step I take

In every word I say

In every move I make

Every minute of the day

And aren't I just that single drop of rain

Turning lose of everything

And flowing in that stream

Knowing at the end of it

I'm pouring into you

Giving up the wandering

And to this call be true

And how is it that all of this can be

Casting aside the things I've known

And finding myself free

And forming from the emptiness

Of being on my own

This union and the inner peace

Of those whom love has known

Just like the first drop of rain falls so softly

That you aren't even sure that it's so

Love can begin just as lightly

With a feeling

And a thought

A smile and a glow

But the thunder in the distance

Like a restless wind will grow

And it sweeps in with a fury and a passion

And thoughts of loving you keep streaming in

Until it shows

In every step I take

In every word I say

In every move I make

Every minute of the day
