[Verse 1] I felt the chill wind through the door when you left for work again No “goodbye,” no morning smile, just the sound of silence then I tell myself we’ll make it, but the truth is hard to see The storm outside’s been building, and inside it’s breaking me [Verse 2] The first raindrops trace the window, like the tears I’ve tried to hide I’m stronger when you hold me, but you’re no longer by my side I stood there at the curtain, watched you slowly drive away Still prayin’ for a miracle, though it’s harder every day [Chorus] When it rains in Tennessee, the sky cries right along with me My shoulders shake the silence where your love used to be Every drop that’s fallin’ feels like one more memory Will love just wash away… when it rains in Tennessee? [Bridge] Have I been holding on too tightly, to a love that slipped away? Seems the harder that I pray… the further you’re away If we can’t find forever, then what’s left for you and me Please don’t let us disappear… when it rains in Tennessee [Final Chorus] When it rains in Tennessee, the sky falls down like me I’m shaking in the silence where your love used to be Every drop that’s fallin’ cuts a little deeper, see Tell me, how does love survive… when it rains in Tennessee?
