Look in the mirror, girl
By now, you should know
You're living in a fantasy
And you can't let go
He never really loved you
From the start
The only thing he ever gave you
Was a broken heart
Don't be afraid to lose
What was never meant to be, oh

After the rain
Washes away the tears
And all the pain
Only after the rain
Can you live again

I know the emptiness
You feel inside
You're thinking if you break away
You'll never survive
I'm waiting as my heart beats
Just for you
Come on, take my hand
And I'll pull you through
But, things will never change
'Til you want them to, oh

After the rain
Washes away the tears
And all the pain
Only after the rain
Can you live again, oh
After the rain (after the rain)
You'll see the sun appear
And light the way
Only after the rain
Can you hope to find true love again

He never really loved you
From the start
The only thing he ever gave you
Was a broken heart
Come on, take my hand
And I'll pull you through
You know the time has come for you
To face the truth

After the rain
Washes away the tears
And all the pain
Only after the rain
Can you live again, oh, oh
After the rain (after the rain)
You'll see the sun appear
And light the way
Only after the rain
Can you hope to find true love again
After the rain, oh, oh

After the rain
Can you love again
After the rain
Washes away the tears
And all the pain
Only after the rain
Can you love again, oh, oh
