Just a Little Rain

Don’t be afraid, my little one, don’t be afraid tonight
I’m right here beside you and everything’s all right
I know it sounds like fingers tapping on your window pane
But don’t be afraid my little one, it’s just a little rain.

Don’t be afraid my little one, though the night seems dark and cold
There’s someone here who loves you with all the love a heart can hold
I know that wind outside sounds like a big, bad hurricane
But it’s just the leaves up in the trees…it just a little rain.

And some day when you’re older and you feel this way again
When the world outside seems scary and the night will never end
Don’t give up your hopes, don’t give up your dreams
The things that you’re afraid of are never what they seem

Don’t be afraid my little one, close your eyes and sleep
The shepherd’s on the hillside watching over all his sheep
And when you wake tomorrow and you see the sun again
You can run through all the puddles that were just a little rain.
Yes, you can splash and spray your fears away…’cause it was just a little rain.
