Amanda Gabriel - I Wish It Rained For Longer Lyrics

My mind runs faster than the wind
Even if it stops I'll find where to begin
Always something new and never worth the time
All my happy days can still turn on a dime

I set my heart on it, that's the way it'll be
And if I can't turn string to gold, then I'm wondering

Why don't things last the way you want them to
Like when the rain falls, it doesn't stay long
I guess it's just meant for the moment
So you gotta wait another day for it to come
I wish it rained for longer
I wish it rained for longer

Daydreaming about the calm after the storm
You can't get there without skies going to war
I can sit all day and watch the lightning cross the plains
But how am I thinking I'm holding the reins

Of all the narratives, yeah, that's where it begins
And I just wanna feel like I'm wild

Why don't things last the way you want them to
Like when the rain falls, it doesn't stay long
I guess it's just meant for the moment
So you gotta wait another day for it to come
I wish it rained for longer

All my days fly over my head
I just wanna be in the sun
Cause when it pours, I can't ignore the way
Oh

Why don't things last the way you want them to
Like when the rain falls, it doesn't stay long no
I guess it's just meant for the moment
So you gotta wait another day for it to come

I wish it rained for longer
I wish it rained for longer
I wish it rained for longer
I wish it rained for longer

I wish it rained
