Farewell Reel

It's been a hard time
And when it rains it rains on me
The sky just opens
And when it rains it poursI walk alone assaulted it seems
By tears from heaven
And darling I can't help
Thinking those tears are yoursOur wild love came from above
And wilder still is the wind that howls
Like a voice that knows it's gone
'Cause darling you died and well I criedBut I'll get by
Salute our love
And send you a smile
And move onSo darling farewell all will be well
And then all will be fine
The children will rise
Strong and happy be sure'Cause your love flows
And the corn still grows
And God only knows we're only given
As much as the heart can endureBut I don't know why
But when it rains it rains on me
The sky just opens
And when it rains it poursBut I look up and a rainbow appears
Like a smile from heaven
And darling I can't help thinking
That smile is yours
