James Hersch - Cold Rain Lyrics

See the man outside my window
Walking slowly with his cane
Holding tight to his umbrella
Through a cold and windy April rain
Sometimes I see him and I wonder
Is anyone there for him at home
Or is he walking off to nowhere
And taking every step alone
I want to say

I can't be your legs
I can't be your arms
But I can be someone to walk along and be strong
I can't take your steps
I can't take your pain
But I can walk beside you in a cold rain

I don't know why some things happen
I wish I could say I understood
So many things I see around me
That I would change if I only could
And I see road you must travel
I see the storm you're going through
I can't do nothing about the weather
But I can walk right beside you

I can't be your legs
I can't be your arms
But I can be someone to walk along and be strong
I can't take your steps
I can't take your pain
But I can walk beside you in a cold rain
A cold rain
