Verse 1 Everybody says the storm will pass Just give it time, it never lasts But I’ve spent years standing still Waiting for the sky to heal Now the clouds are calling out my name And I’m done hiding from the pain Maybe answers aren’t ahead Maybe they’re inside the rain Pre-Chorus So I step into the gray Instead of walking away Chorus I’m chasing the rain Running through the hurt again Not because I love the pain But because I can’t pretend Every drop that hits my skin Washes something clean within And though it falls like heartbreak now I’m chasing the rain somehow Verse 2 The streets are shining in the dark Like reflections of my heart Broken pieces catching light Even on the hardest nights I used to think that healing meant Never feeling this again Now I know it’s learning how To carry where I’ve been Pre-Chorus The storm is still above But so is hope Chorus I’m chasing the rain Running through the hurt again Not because I love the pain But because I can’t pretend Every drop that hits my skin Washes something clean within And though it falls like heartbreak now I’m chasing the rain somehow Post-Chorus Whoa-oh-oh, let it fall Whoa-oh-oh, feel it all Bridge Maybe the sky has to break Before the sunlight finds a way Maybe the tears I tried to hide Are what help me come alive Final Chorus I’m chasing the rain Not running away again Every scar, every ache Helped me become who I am And though the clouds still follow me They don’t control my destiny I’m learning how to live somehow By chasing the rain Outro The storm remains But so do I Chasing the rain
