After we love, we bathe in the glow
Remembering what happened a moment ago
Like after the rain, when the wind breathes a sigh
While it's resting on pillows of sky
Deep in your arms, it's peaceful and warm
Together we lie in a calm that comes after a storm
In a moment or two, we can hear the stars coming through
I love the quiet right after the rain here with you
After the rain, the birds wanna fly
The trees all in green hang the leaves out to dry
Like puddles and pools, what your eyes let me see
Are there loving reflections of me
After a while, you touch me and then
I feel like a flower that longs for a shower again
And then I'm lost in a kiss, I could stay forever like this
Though I don't know just what magic the raindrops contain
I know that everything's wonderful after the rain
Remembering what happened a moment ago
Like after the rain, when the wind breathes a sigh
While it's resting on pillows of sky
Deep in your arms, it's peaceful and warm
Together we lie in a calm that comes after a storm
In a moment or two, we can hear the stars coming through
I love the quiet right after the rain here with you
After the rain, the birds wanna fly
The trees all in green hang the leaves out to dry
Like puddles and pools, what your eyes let me see
Are there loving reflections of me
After a while, you touch me and then
I feel like a flower that longs for a shower again
And then I'm lost in a kiss, I could stay forever like this
Though I don't know just what magic the raindrops contain
I know that everything's wonderful after the rain
