The Rains
Oh
Too many runaways
Run from the storm
Too many don't turn back
Don't know what they're running for
Well my life's in the city
And it's there I'm going to stay
No one's going to come and take it away
Take it away
A cool wind is blowing
Across my face
It blows away my tears
Scars without a trace
Well, my life's in the city
But the skies have turned to gray
All I have left is a few more days
All I have left is a few more days
My walls keep tumbling down
Again and again
And I keep waiting for the rains to descend
To descend
Tired eyes are watching
Watching for the storm
The eyes are filled with fear
The eyes are filled with scorn
My life's in the city
But the storm is here today
All we can do is cry and pray
All we can do is cry and pray
My walls keep tumbling down
Again and again
And I keep waiting
For the rains to descend
Even though oppressed
I keep my heart open
And I keep waiting for the rains to descend
My heart is aching for reasoning
Troubled times are calling for the cold to set in
My sky won't stop its crying
My heart is calling out to you
Once again
Too many runaways
Run from the storm
Too many don't turn back
Don't know what they are running for
My life's in the city
But the rains have swept it away
Now I'm just another runaway
Now I'm just another runaway
My walls keep tumbling down
Again and again
And I keep waiting for the rains to descend
Even though oppressed
I keep my heart open
And I keep waiting for the rains to descend
To descend
Too many runaways
Run from the storm
Too many don't turn back
Don't know what they're running for
Well my life's in the city
And it's there I'm going to stay
No one's going to come and take it away
Take it away
A cool wind is blowing
Across my face
It blows away my tears
Scars without a trace
Well, my life's in the city
But the skies have turned to gray
All I have left is a few more days
All I have left is a few more days
My walls keep tumbling down
Again and again
And I keep waiting for the rains to descend
To descend
Tired eyes are watching
Watching for the storm
The eyes are filled with fear
The eyes are filled with scorn
My life's in the city
But the storm is here today
All we can do is cry and pray
All we can do is cry and pray
My walls keep tumbling down
Again and again
And I keep waiting
For the rains to descend
Even though oppressed
I keep my heart open
And I keep waiting for the rains to descend
My heart is aching for reasoning
Troubled times are calling for the cold to set in
My sky won't stop its crying
My heart is calling out to you
Once again
Too many runaways
Run from the storm
Too many don't turn back
Don't know what they are running for
My life's in the city
But the rains have swept it away
Now I'm just another runaway
Now I'm just another runaway
My walls keep tumbling down
Again and again
And I keep waiting for the rains to descend
Even though oppressed
I keep my heart open
And I keep waiting for the rains to descend
To descend
