Act 1. Perfect

Yonah Shed no tears for me There'll be rain enough today I'm wishing you Godspeed As I wave you on your way This won't be the first time I've stayed to face The bitter consequences of ancient fall from grace I'm a daughter of the race of Cain I am not stranger to the rain And for the boy who's given me the sweetest love I know I wish for you another love so you won't be alone Because I am bound to walk among the wounded and the slain And when the storm comes crashing on the plain I will dance before the lightning to music sacred and profane Oh, shed no tears Light no candle for my sake This journey I'll making now Is one we all must take Shoulder to the wind I'll turn my face into the spray And when the heavens open Let the drops fall where they may May they finally wash away the stain Of a daughter of the race of Cain I am not a stranger to the rain, let it rain
