Rain Down

I was walking to the river on a lonely day
I was walking to the river alone
And I couldn't remember the last time I came home

I took myself to the bridge
To the rocks on the ridge
It was sunny even though it had rained
Someday I'll come home
And I'll give these places a name

It's like a secret never told
That the keeper doesn't know
It's like a word lost deep in a goodbye
It's like looking in the distance
Where the ground meets up with the sky

And you think to yourself
If I just keep walking
Maybe I can make it as well

Rain down and wash away
The footsteps from these streets
I don't need them to remember where I've been
Rain down and wash away
The footsteps from these streets
Rain, rain down on me

I was walking downtown
There was dust on the ground
Making clouds as the world moved
There was man on the corner
He was singing himself a tune

There's an old warehouse and it's coming down
To remind us that the times will change
Soon it's gonna be another place with another name

And you think to yourself
If I just keep walking
Maybe I can change as well

Rain down and wash away
The footsteps from these streets
I don't need them to remember where I've been
Rain down and wash away
The footsteps from these streets
Rain, rain down on me
Rain, rain down on me
