Rise Again

Brandi Carlile · Bear Creek [2012]

When I find the sweet hereafter

Put a blanket on my soul

Cast a shadow on my heart

Slide the chain across my door



Ever turning all the seasons

Ever fading all the days

And if there ever was a reason

I just haven't found a way



To fall like rain

Fall like rain

Fall like rain

Fall like rain

Only to rise again



I was longing for the wind

When the trees begin to sway

But I never grow my wings

No, I never fly away



For the anchor of my love

To which my heart is bound

Is the iron for the cage

That keeps me on the ground



To fall like rain

Fall like rain

Fall like rain

Fall like rain

Only to rise again



Now I'm dreaming to myself

With a tear behind my eye

For a shelter is my mind

In the quiet of the night



Ever turning all the seasons

Ever fading all the days

And if there ever was a reason

I just haven't found a way



To fall like rain

Fall like rain

Fall like rain

Fall like rain

Only to rise again
