She’s not alright tonight,
the passion’s gone and she’s burned out.
Gave up the right to fight
and she’s blaming Him for how it turned out.
‘Cause when the party’s over
and the moment’s just a memory,
when the sun has set,
she feels so alone.
She can’t forgive herself,
so how could He?
The love that she’s felt physically
is the root of all the hurt she’s ever known.
Can’t believe she’s so low,
seems so long ago,
a little girl with a smile,
rain drops on the window.
Can’t see her way past
the love that don’t last.
She’d give it all up
if she could, but she can’t
and the angels hear
her pray in her heart
for release;
and as the rain rolls down her window,
God grants this young girl peace.
All the love in the world
comes and goes,
it isn’t built to last.
She feels the weight
that we all know,
that life goes by so fast.
It’s not easy as it was to know
God’s love as a child,
and as the rain rolls down her window,
God holds her and she smiles.
