Lake and Mountains in Sunshine and Rain

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

Just now, fine flecks of golden light were still dancing on the lake

Another shower gently folds the distant mountains into thin gauze

Beneath the boat's canopy, someone asks if the weather is good today

Smiling, I take both landscapes into my eyes

[Pre-Chorus]

Clear skies make your outline bright and distinct

Misty rain gives the same mountains another layer of breath

[Chorus]

In sunshine or rain, I want to see you

The same lake speaks of beauty in many voices

There is no need to shine brilliantly every day for anyone

I am willing to cherish its quiet, misty face too

Even when its weather changes, life is still worth drawing close to

Let me keep you company as we slowly listen to each passing wind

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 2]

As I fold the umbrella, rain still lingers on my cuffs

Rounding the willow bank, I see tenderness shining through the sky again

I no longer choose only sunny days to go out

I also want to know how the world turns when the clouds hang low

[Pre-Chorus]

Clear skies make your outline bright and distinct

Misty rain gives the same mountains another layer of breath

[Chorus]

In sunshine or rain, I want to see you

The same lake speaks of beauty in many voices

There is no need to shine brilliantly every day for anyone

I am willing to cherish its quiet, misty face too

Even when its weather changes, life is still worth drawing close to

Let me keep you company as we slowly listen to each passing wind

[Bridge]

Some favor brightness, some love subtlety

The scenery before me needs no ranking for praise

May we allow a little more room in how we see others and ourselves

Every kind of ordinary can find a reason to be loved

[Final Chorus]

In sunshine or rain, I want to see you

The same lake speaks of beauty in many voices

There is no need to shine brilliantly every day for anyone

I am willing to cherish its quiet, misty face too

Even when its weather changes, life is still worth drawing close to

Let me keep you company as we slowly listen to each passing wind

[Outro]

The lake gathers sunshine and rain alike into its embrace

My good mood no longer waits for just one kind of weather
