Stranger to the Rain Stephen Schwartz (Ft. Kelli Rabke)

[YONAH]
Shed no tears for me
There'll be rain enough today
I'm wishing you godspeed
As I wave you on your way
This won't be the first time
I've stayed behind to face
The bitter consequences
Of an ancient fall from grace
I'm a daughter of the race of Cain
I am not a stranger to the rain

Orphan in the storm
That's a role I've played before
I've learned not to tremble
When I hear the thunder roar
I don't curse what I can't change
I just play the hand I'm dealt
When they lighten up the rations
I tighten up my belt
I won't say I've never felt the pain
But I am not a stranger to the rain

And for the boy who's given me
The sweetest love I've known
I wish for him another love
So he won't be alone
Because I am bound to walk
Among the wounded and the slain
And when the storm comes
Crashing on the plain
I will dance before the lightning
To music sacred and profane
