When I See The Rain

Give me your calloused hands
And we'll dip into the sand
Forget this year even began
Open your tired eyes
And let down your cold disguise
I'll give you my only advice

Cause the world's still twirling on
But the old songs are playing along
And when you hear my voice
You know you still have a choice
Cause when the world went dark
Though it has never been the same
I learned to never sigh when I see the rain
Ooh Ooh Ooh

Oh, life's a funny thing
The way it dips and swings
And marches in time to the tune
Oh, but I don't ever want to be
The mother's enemy
And meet my demise way too soon

Cause you're here, then you're gone
Sometimes before you know right from wrong
The only wisdom that I've gained
Is that the fountain of youth comes from dancing in the rain
Cause when the world went dark
Though it has never been the same
I learned to never sigh when I see the rain
Ooooh

Cause you're the reason I believe
In planting all my apple seeds
And why I make my tea with two spoons
But if you think that life's a bitch
Then you're the snitch out in the ditch
Don't preach before they're taken too soon

Just give me the time of day
And I'll wipe away
The trouble in your brain
What's being alone man
You just find your own clan
And go dancing through the rain

Just give me the time of day
And I'll wipe away
The trouble in your brain
What's being alone man

You just find your own clan
And you never sigh when you see the rain
