The guilt of knowing you messed up, hurt someone's feelings, attempting to make excuses, finally owning up for fear of losing someone special. Man relationships can be tricky!

I MADE IT RAIN
Let’s get to bed
Now the day is spent
I try my best
To look innocent
But I could have been
Much kinder to you
Let’s sleep on it
It’ll do us good
To understand
What’s misunderstood
Make the most of this
The least we can do
It’s getting way too serious for me
The truth obscured by my dishonesty
CHORUS
You said I’m losing you again
Caresses touching you in vain
You said I’m losing you again
It feels like I’m the one who made it rain
Waking up
To a silent gloom
A sense of loss
In an empty room
Such a painful pause
Can you forgive?
Feeling like a greetings card I’m blank inside
Try to give you reasons but my tongue is tied
CHORUS
Let it rain
Let it rain
And wash away my guilty stain
We’ll make amends
On dry weekends
Slowing down the distant looming hurricane
This heavy weather
Is so intense
Let’s put it down
To experience
But I didn’t mean
To drown you out
It’s getting way too difficult for me
Now my faith is flooded by uncertainty
CHORUS
