First Love Rain

[Verse] Rain falls heavy fills the air shadows whispering your name Mud soaked streets where we walked hand in hand love was flame Eyes stare blankly at the storm lit by lightning's cold embrace Heart's a battlefield your ghost haunting my place [Verse 2] Broken bottles memories spill drown dreams of yesterday Rusty swingsets creak a tune whispers fade can't stay Your scent lingers in the night perfume of lost dreams Echoes of your laughter cut deep dark it seems [Chorus] First love rain it drowns my soul Flood of pain can't make me whole Thoughts of you they steal my breath Living in the shadow of love's death [Bridge] Tattered photos smudged by tears torn notes hidden in these drawers Every word you spoke a knife the rain keeps knocking at my doors Can't escape this endless fight drowning in the storm's embrace Every drop just twists the knife more questions I must face [Verse 3] City lights blur through the haze reflected in this glass of gin Trapped by sorrow locked in place wishing I could start again Torn apart by every strike every flash of light and sound Lonely man seeks solace lost but it's nowhere to be found [Chorus] First love rain it drowns my soul Flood of pain can't make me whole Thoughts of you they steal my breath Living in the shadow of love's death
