From the recording Eddie Carrigan
Lyrics
The rain beats down, starts the summer,
A bleeding heart that’s found no other,
I miss you now, I miss you more each day.
A time for crying, there’s a time for healing,
I have to wait from the way I’m feeling,
Can’t stop the rain, can’t stop believing in you.
The higher you climb, the further you go,
The deeper the thought, the warmer the glow,
But not for me, it gets colder than cold.
It’s a lesson in love.
Another night upon reflection,
The fire burns, but there’s no redemption,
Call me a fool without intention, am I.
By candlelight the rain grows stronger,
Yet now I feel I don’t belong here.
I’m broken inside, my only answer is you.
This is a chance worth taking,
Because I know we’re worth saving,
The nights are so lonely now,
It’s only now I know.
The higher you climb, the further you go,
The deeper the thought, the warmer the glow,
But not for me, it gets colder than cold.
It’s a lesson in love.
