I'm tired of sitting here
The clouds are coming
The rain is falling
The thunder has shaken me

I'm gunna dance, dance, dance
Dance in the pouring, pouring, pouring rain
I'm not waiting for the storm to pass
That's just not me
I'd rather live a moment at the top
Than in the shadows

Throw my hands in the air
Set a smile on my face
Even if it's fake
I'm tired of all my frowns

So dance, dance, dance
Dance in the pouring, pouring, pouring rain
Don't wait for the storm to pass
You won't regret it
Just stand out under the clouds
And feel the earth shake under your toes

Even after the storm is gone
Look in the sky
Look at God's promise
The beautiful rainbow
