Hi,
Here are this week's lyrics for anyone to use. As usual, just like all the lyrics posted on my site -- AndrewRandall.com -- these are FREE for you to use any way you like, with the only condition being that I get standard writer's credit and royalties (50:50 - lyrics:music) if you release the song into the public domain.

Have fun! (Sorry about the formatting.  This site's hopeless! To see it in correct format, visit http://www.limeyaccent.com/lyrics/lyrics/gentleastherain.html)
Gentle As The Rain
It doesn’t matter what they say, what they do.
Bring it on.
Whatever challenge comes our way, you’ll get us through.
So all the odds are stacked up on the other side.
Build ’em up.
It only makes our life a more exciting ride.
Fourth and ten; they won’t defeat us.
Last play huddles just complete us.
Your aim’s true. You always make the play.
(Chorus)
When the world is crumbling ’round us,
Fire and steel run through your veins.
When the tide comes in to drown us,
You’re our lifeboat once again.
I’ve never known someone as strong as you.
There’s not a force can match the things you do.
But when I simply need you there to ease my pain,
You’re gentle as the rain.
From the very first time you took me in your arms,
That was that.
I knew you’d always keep us safe from any harm.
And though we always seem to run against the pack.
It’s a trip.
We’re still a team, so we must be on the right track.
Bases loaded; two men out.
You’ll swing and hit, I have no doubt,
Then stroll past home and find your way to me.
(Chorus)
When the world is crumbling ’round us,
Fire and steel run through your veins.
When the tide comes in to drown us,
You’re our lifeboat once again.
I’ve never known someone as strong as you.
There’s not a force can match the things you do.
But when I simply need you there to ease my pain,
You’re gentle as the rain.
All these years, so hard, don’t change the way I feel.
Not a bit.
The rest means nothing. You’re the only thing that’s real.
Five more seconds; we’re down two.
You’ll shoot for three and make the hoop.
No net, no sweat. It’s just another day.
(Chorus)
When the world is crumbling ’round us,
Fire and steel run through your veins.
When the tide comes in to drown us,
You’re our lifeboat once again.
I’ve never known someone as strong as you.
There’s not a force can match the things you do.
But when I simply need you there to ease my pain,
You’re gentle as the rain.
