Mmm yeah au au au august yeahh ohh
Hearts been broken, struggling just to find a brand new start
The darkness is closing in, making everyone of my decisions hard
You've been calling, telling me you'd always be there
But it just wouldn't have been fair, to you

And they said that after the storm it'd be bright
That the clouds would give way to the sun
And i know you've been waiting for me to come around
I just needed some time to figure it all out

I was lost, there was no way that i could be what you want
And no way that i could give you my all
My heart wasn't proper, but that didn't stop ya from waiting
Til after, after, after the rain

I had to re-pair, leave behind the pieces and re-build again
Ohh, and yeah i saw you there but there's no way that i could just pretend
That i was alright and okay
I wasn't all good and i had to delay
I needed the water to wash that away

And they said that after the storm it'd be bright
That the clouds would give way to the sun
And i know you've been waiting for me to come around
I just needed some time to figure it out

Cause i was so lost there was no way that i could be what you want
And no way that i could give you my all
My heart wasn't proper, but that didn't stop ya from waiting
Til after, after, after the rain

Let it wash away all my mistakes
Cause i got so many changes to make
See from hating to loving i got to make the adjustment
From the darkness into the rising sun yeah

I'm so sorry to keep you waiting
Almost drowned cause it wouldn't stop raining
Now that all that is gone, i'm ready to carry on

I was lost, there was no way that i could be what you want
And no way that i could give you my all
My heart wasn't proper, but that didn't stop ya from waiting
Til after, after, after the rain
After the rain
Ooh, said after the rain
Until after the rain yeahh
