Was your Grandma wise too?
(A lone voice whispers)
One day,
The rain will stop
People won't judge what you got
One day,
The pain will stop
No more gossiping from the rooftops
One day,
All that will remain
Is the peace you got
For the start of true love is an inside job
All these things
My Grandma once said
Along with
Be you
Like a raindrop in a desert
People will either love you or won't be able to find you
But it won't matter
What will matter is
You'll be a raindrop in a desert for just someone special
And on that day
When it comes
Just keep praying
The rain will stop
People won't matter if they judge what you don't got
On that day,
The pain will stop
You'll stop hearing gossiping from the rooftops
And on that special day
All that will remain
Is the peace you share
With someone who cares
For true love can start with just a single raindrop
Like finding your favourite book of poetry
In a second hand shop
