You were both a stranger and a friend
I can see that now at our roads end
I saw you, you saw me
but we saw love differently
and I never was one to pretend

I thought time would change things and you tried
I know now how much you had to hide
I used a thousand words I know you never heard
What I triend to tell you when I cried

Now I'm alone and only the passing of days
can wash away these tears of pain
And may they flow till all the hurts slowly fades
till all that remains is a healing rain
till all that remains is a healing rain

Sometimes love is blind to who we are
sometimes in a dream we see too far
I set my sights to high I tried to touch love's sky
and when I fell the ground was hard

I watched you go and only my heart can explain
these tears of pain, my tears of pain
Someday I know something of love will remain
I just hope and pray for a healing rain

Time will show that only love can remain
I hope and pray for a healing rain
I hope and pray for a healing rain
