Forrest Gump

I like to sleep with the windows open
When it's raining outside
But why, I don't know why

Maybe it's the first time that you can never forget
Maybe it's the second that brings everything to a head
I still remember the day we met

If you're ever lost, alone, abandoned in the pouring rain
And you need someone to get you on your feet again
When the cold has almost frozen the blood in your veins
I will take you home
We'll build a fire and dry off
And try to fix your broken heart

Do you ever wonder how so many days slip by
Unnoticed, how so many words
Are spoken but never heard?

I've heard that lightning is caused by an electric charge
I've heard a friend of a friend say you've found somebody new
I hope he's good to you

If you're ever lost, alone, abandoned in the pouring rain
And you need someone to get you on your feet again
When the cold has almost frozen the blood in your veins
I will take you home
We'll build a fire and dry off
And try to fix your broken heart

It was the year of the flood, 1993
It was a day like no other, or so it did seem
And the thunder it shook loose the wedge in between
I tried not to look but was caught in a dream

The story of mankind is like a bowling pin
You knock it down then start again
Only this time make amends

May every cloud rain down and wash away your tears
May every sun illuminate the corners of your sunken eyes
May you live before you die

If you're ever lost, alone, abandoned in the pouring rain
And you need someone to get you on your feet again
And when the only consolation is a fast moving train
I will take you home
We'll build a fire and dry off
And try to fix your broken heart

I will take you home
We'll build a fire and dry off
And try to fix your broken heart
