lyrics
It's raining on my birthday
And I don't mind at all
Thank you for the wishing well
And thank you for the call
All my insecurities are crashing to the floor
All my intuitions tell me more
Foes that lived under my skin are easy to ignore
Cause time is moving faster than before
It's raining on my birthday
And I don't mind at all
Thank you for the wishing well
And thank you for the call
I will count my blessings
That punctuate my life
The list is tall but most of all
My children and my wife
Sunshine is very fine
To wish all summer long
The rain clouds always gift me with a song
After all the rain will fall
To wash away all the fear
And rainbows usher in another year
It's raining on my birthday
And I don't mind at all
