So here I am with Chapter 42.1, aka a canonical songstory for the song "Every Time It Rains." There's another songstory forthcoming, and after that, Chapter 43, which is currently entitled "Apple Blossoms" because I don't really know what will be happening in it. Enjoy!
Here's a link to the song. Play it as you read.
Every Time It Rains
Every time it rains
I listen to the sky
I wonder what's so great about sunshine
So everybody lives
And everybody dies
And no one's gonna love you like I do
When it was getting dark, I
Didn't need a match, I
Never needed light to see you
You thought I disappeared but
I was always here, oh
I could never get that far from you.
So I misunderstand, and been misunderstood
So love me cause you can, and not because you should.
And every time it rains
I know it's good to be alive
And every time it rains
I know I'm trying to survive.
So take it as it comes
And take me as I am
I never was a good imposter
And I know how to dream, but
Don't know where I stand
I'm willing to admit I tried too hard.
Stop playing with my heart
I'm waiting by the phone
Afraid to be myself
Afraid to be alone
But every time it rains
I know it's good to be alive
And every time it rains
I know I'm trying to survive
And every time it rains
I'm gonna hide myself inside
I know it's good to be alive
I know it's good to be alive
I know it's good to be alive
Every time it rains
I know it's good to be alive
And every time it rains
I know I'm trying to survive
Every time it rains
Every time it rains
Every time it rains
