Daddy was a preacher
She was his wife
Just tryin to make the world a little better

You know, shine a light
People started talking
Trying to hear their own voice

Those people tried to accuse my father
Said he made the wrong choice


And though it might be painful
You know that time will always tell
Those people have long since gone

My father never failed

Even when the rain falls

Even when the flood starts rising
Even when the storm comes
I am washed by the water


Even when the rain falls
Even when the flood starts rising

Even when the storm comes
I am washed by the water


Even when the Earth crumbles under my feet
Even when the ones I love turn around and crucify me
I won't never ever let you down

I won't fall
I won't fall
I won't fall as long as you're around me


Even when the rain falls
Even when the flood starts rising

Even when the storm comes
I am washed by the water


Even when the rain falls
Even when the flood starts rising
Even when the storm comes

I am washed by the water

Even when the rain falls

Even when the flood starts rising
Even when the storm comes
I am washed by the water


Even when the rain falls
Even when the flood starts rising

Even when the storm comes
I am washed by the water
