"Rainin' You"

For months and months Rick had been telling Bridgette about this song that reminded him of her. Of course she wanted to hear it, but he kept telling her it wasn’t the ‘right time.’ Whatever that meant! Her impatience faded and as time passed she simply forgot about the mystery song.

Christmas morning was here and the two woke up early to a dense fog outside and slowly made their way down the wooden staircase of his parents Southern home. The entire family opened and exchanges gifts, looked through stockings, and laughed at memories of their past Christmas’ together.

After the traditional family prayer, where everyone gets a chance to thank God about what they were so thankful for from that year, Rick asked Bridgette to accompany him outside to the sunroom porch. They sat comfortably on the sofa in the sunroom surrounded by beautiful Christmas decorations and lights. Rick opened his gift from Bridgette first, just what he had wanted…an electrical razor!!! Then she received a box that he told her to open. As she uncovered it from the tissue inside the box she pulled out a CD and a note that read “Play # 8.” At that point she knew it was “the song.” He took the CD from her and placed in the CD player and turned it to # 8 and asked her to dance with him. While dancing she began to feel him shaking and she knew something big was about to happen. At the end of the song Rick got down on one knee and asked Bridgette if she would marry him. The two whelped up with tears as she said “Yes!!”

(The Song is "Rainin' You" by Brad Paisley)

When I looked out today
And saw that the sky was gray
I thought about the way
You loved days like this

And driving in to town
It really started coming down
Bringing me back around
To all that I miss

It feels like it's rainin' you
It feels like it's rainin' you

I didn't even run inside
Or worry about staying dry
Besides theres nowhere I can hide
From these feelings now

Running down my face
Takes me to another place
I can't think of a better way to drown

It feels like it's rainin' you
I can't explain it
But I am baptized anew
It feels like it's rainin' you

If I had my way
It would do this every day
I would never see the sun
Because the closest I get
To holding you again
Is every time that sky opens up

It feels like it's rainin' you
I can't explain it
But I am baptized anew
It feels like it's rainin' you
It feels like it's rainin' you
