Soft rain was falling when you told me goodbye

Thunder and lightning filled my heart inside

The love born in heaven had suddenly died

And the soft rain was teardrops for the angels all cried



If love can be perfect ours must have been

But perfection is always destroyed by men

The rain whispered softly a true love just died

And the soft rain was teardrops for the angels all cried

[ steel ]

The rain started falling when you told me goodbye

And lightning came crashing from out of the sky

The sky that was bright blue turned slowly to grey

And the angels cried with me as you walked away



If love can be perfect ours must have been...
