It always surprises me that children smile and laugh so much. This becomes ever more apparent when you see children playing in a backdrop of streets torn apart by poverty, natural disaster or war.
There is something amazing about the human spirit that helps it overcome.
"When It Rains" is featured on P'dice with one of my all time favourite drummers Gavin Harrison. This single version includes my amazing "drumming" skills.
I also had this single mastered at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London just to see (hear) what they can do.
Lyrics
It's dark on the road on your own.
The dust stings your eyes then it rains.
Six months have dragged by since the end of your world.
Tomorrow you'll get up again.
I know you look back in anger.
There's hurt, there's fear and there's pain.
I see your spirit fly on different winds.
For you dream of the sun when it rains.
When you're lost, on your own, we can find a way.
Don't look back, don't be scared, I am here to stay.
Take my hand, walk with me to your new home.
Let your heart dance again, you are not alone.
I know you look back in anger.
There's hurt, there's fear and there's pain.
I see your spirit fly on different winds.
For you dream of the sun when it rains.
