letra de steinmart rain - matthew whettam
[verse 1]
it was a warm sunny morning
not a cloud in the sky or a hint of rain
i was nine years old at the stein mart with my daddy on a sat-rday
we took a five minute run for some blue cut jeans
stepped out the door and what did we see?
it’s a downpour, flooding up the parking lot
sky’s dark, cars gone
daddy laughed
he said
[chorus]
hold on son you got a long way to go
only fools complain when it rains or it snows
you can plan your whole day but in the end no one knows where the wind will blow
live your life without expectation
fill your heart with love
and your mind with patience
take the long road when you see the short lane
remember everything cuz any minute you’ll be caught out standing in the steinmart rain
it’s just a little steinmart rain
[verse 2]
twenty years later, got a wife and kid; my own family
gettin’ bored of the same ol’ day-in day-out routine
but then a call comes in
it’s the doctor on the other side
“no time left, make it back before your father dies”
start the truck up, race the dust, hit the sidewalk
run up, grab his hand
daddy grins
he says
[chorus]
hold on son you got a long way to go
only fools complain when it rains or it snows
you can plan your whole day but in the end no one knows where the wind will blow
live your life without expectation
fill your heart with love
and your mind with patience
take the long road when you see the short lane
give your family all they need cuz any minute you’ll be caught out standing in the steinmart rain
[bridge]
i hear my dad speak
listening to whitley
working on the kid’s swing
and every little warm breeze
he’s still teaching me, got a lot to show me
just in how he raised up a boy to be a man
how he dedicated all to his family
and someday i will walk a mile in his boots
and do everything i can to prove
i’m ready for the unexpected, hungry for experience and
free of my regret, so i can walk outside and be happy that i’m with
[verse 3]
it’s a bright sunny morning
not a cloud in the sky or a hint of rain
i got my daughter on the porch watching birds go by
drinking lemonade
we go in for a refill, come out to a deluge
water’s in the chairs and it’s up to her shoe
now she’s askin’ why i’m laughin’, but my eyes look sad
then the clouds break, heart ache
she smiles
i say
[chorus]
hold on girl you got a long way to go
you should never complain when it rains or it snows
you can plan your whole day but in the end no one knows where the wind will blow
live your life without expectation
fill your heart with love
and your mind with patience
take the long road when you see the short lane
remember everything, give your family all they need
jump in puddles everyday, cuz any minute you’ll be caught out in the steinmart rain
[outro]
there’s a rainbow on the way
shining through the steinmart rain
