| "Chase the Rain"
Bad days will go away
Sunlight will chase the rain
Those wounds will heal and end the pain.
The only thing that’s sure is change.
Change, change, what’s sure is change.
I remember the first time my family moved out
And packed up to go to a brand new house
I liked my old home, the new one was strange
When nothin’ is wrong then who wants to change?
I complained to my dad with tears in my eyes
Feelin’ weird inside, and here’s his reply
“Hey, kid, I know how you feel right now
You might pout but soon you’ll be like, “Wow!”
A month will pass, son, fast one and when that’s done
You’ll love your new home just like the last one
I know that’s hard to understand, it must be
Sure enough, but it’s part of growing up trust me.”
Some things’ you can’t see till you’re already there
You just gotta believe – I know it’s not really fair
When you’re up in the air you search for the reason
And life keep’s changin’ like a circle of seasons.
Bad days will go away
Sunlight will chase the rain
Those wounds will heal and end the pain.
The only thing that’s sure is change.
Change, change, what’s sure is change.
I remember the first time I lost a good friend
A friendship that I thought never would end
If I understood then what I understand now
I’d have known that life isn’t somethin’ planned out.
What it’s all about is you gotta follow your heart
Even if that leaves friendships fallin’ apart
Cause they gotta follow their hearts, too
It’s hard to end a part of your life and start new at part two.
But everybody does it, so don’t be scared of it.
Change is strange, but you might learn to love it.
There’s lots of different people that you’re gonna become
Just look into your past if you wanna see one
You used to be a baby, then became a child
What’s next? Who knows? Life is crazy wild.
Goin’ through twists and turns – that can take a while
But before long, it usually makes you smile.
Bad days will go away
Sunlight will chase the rain
Those wounds will heal and end the pain.
The only thing that’s sure is change.
Change, change, what’s sure is change.
Now I finally know that change is my friend.
Even if it changes my home and changes my friends.
Tryin’ to stay the same is like chasin’ the wind.
You’re a story – time turns the pages again.
You never know what’s gonna happen next – it’s mysterious.
First you wonder about the future – then, here it is.
Life’s full of miracles if you’re curious.
So make sure to take havin’ fun real serious.
And when you have bad days and dark times.
Just let the sun set and watch the stars shine.
And when you wake up next, it’s a new day.
New place – fresher than shampoo and toothpaste.
Tie your shoelace – it’s time for a journey.
Life’s an adventure – might as well start early.
Pack your backpack with lots of love and plenty of hope
And watch time turn troubles to the funniest jokes.
Bad days will go away
Sunlight will chase the rain
Those wounds will heal and end the pain.
The only thing that’s sure is change.
Change, change, what’s sure is change.
