California winter rain, it's cold and grey, ad I keep walking,
Feeling like I'm not alone, I almost hear the raindrops talking,
Don't look back, don't lose track of the one thing left worth fighting for,
I'll keep in sight, but it's alright, oh.

Coming back to you again, once more on my knees for mercy,
I know it seems I never learn; I wonder if I ever will see,
Comes the light, end of night - the freedom of the love without tears,
It's a fight, but I'm alright 'cause...

You're faithful forever, though it's hard to believe when I'm cold and lonely,
You're faithful forever, and you're teaching me now how to stand on my own.

I don't know how you love me now, when every chance I've had I've fought you,
Yet, when I need a tender touch, you patient loving-kindness shines through,
I can see I must be the reason for the rain in my heart,
It's a fight, but I'm alright 'cause...

You're faithful forever, though I feel like a child, forsaken in danger,
You're faithful forever, and you're teaching me now how to stand on my own,
You're faithful forever, forever.

I can see I must be the reason for the rain in my heart,
It's a fight, but I'm alright.

You're faithful forever, though it's hard to believe when I'm cold and lonely,
You're faithful forever, and you're teaching me now how to stand on my own,
You're faithful forever, though I feel like a child, forsaken in danger,
You're faithful forever, and you're teaching me now how to stand on my own,
You're faithful forever, though it's hard to believe when I'm cold and lonely,
You're faithful forever, and you're teaching me now how to stand on my own.
