Wash All My Cares Away

The cool rain beats against my faces
wash all my cares away.
The cool rain runs down my neck
wash all my cares away.
The cool rain soaks through my shirt
wash all my cares away.
The cool rain tickles my toes
wash all my cares away.

I wipe the tears from my eyes
wash all my cares away.
I let the rain run down my neck
wash all my cares away.
I laugh at my shirt
wash all my cares away.
I splash through the puddles
wash all my cares away.

You wipe the rain from my eyes
wash all my cares away.
You gently touch my hand
wash all my cares away.
You pull me close
wash all my cares away.
You move your feet in rhythm with mine
wash all my cares away.

Our cheeks no longer feel the rain
wash all my cares away.
Our bodies draw closer
wash all my cares away
Our lips embrace
wash all my cares away.
The rain no longer matters
wash all my cares away.
