Name: April Showers
Duration: P00H02M07S
Description: I originally wrote this a while back, but with depressing lyrics which kinda reflected the place I was in mentally and spiritually. I've resurrected the piano line, which I loved, and replaced the doleful, pessimistic words with ones that better represent what I now believe in.

about

I originally wrote this a while back, but with depressing lyrics which kinda reflected the place I was in mentally and spiritually. I've resurrected the piano line, which I loved, and replaced the doleful, pessimistic words with ones that better represent what I now believe in.

lyrics

Sometimes it rains cats and dogs/ til your ears are in pain from the hissing and the howling/ but life only grows when Holy water flows/ The rain makes us grow

Sing us to life/ cause your Spirit is perfect and true/ with the power to renew/ bring April showers/ so all of us may flower/ So all of us may flower
