The Day That The Rains Came Down

The wind blew furiously. The clatter of hailstones drew my attention.  

The sky did not really seem ominous--just wet.

The Day the Rains Came Down

Jayne Morgan--1958

The day that the rains came down

Mother Earth smiled again

Now the lilacs could bloom

Now the fields could grow greener

The day that the rains came down

Buds were born, love was born

As the young buds will grow

So our young love will grow

Love, sweet love

A robin sang a song of love

A willow tree reached up to the heavens

As if to thank the sky above

For all that rain, that welcome rain

We looked across the meadowland

And seemed to sense a kind of a miracle

Much too deep to understand

And there we were, so much in love

The day that the rains came down

Mountain streams swelled with pride

Gone the dry river bed

Gone the dust from the valley

The day that the rains came down

Buds were born, love was born

As the young buds will grow

So our young love will grow

Love, sweet love

Rain sweet rain
