| The sky is crying
|
| The streets are full of tears
|
| Rain come down
|
| Wash away my fears
|
| And all this writing on the wall
|
| Oh, I can read between the lines
|
| Rain come down
|
| Forgive this dirty town
|
| Rain come down
|
| Give this dirty town
|
| A drink of water
|
| A drink of wine
|
| If I’ve been hard on you
|
| I never chose to be
|
| I never wanted no one else
|
| I’ve tried my best to be somebody you’d be close to
|
| Hand in hand
|
| Like lovers are supposed to
|
| As you’d sleep
|
| I’d think my heart will break in two
|
| I’d kiss your cheek
|
| I’d stop myself from waking you
|
| But in the dark you’d speak my name
|
| And say, «Baby, what’s wrong?»
|
| Oh, here i am, baby
|
| I’m coming back for more
|
| I’m like a wave
|
| It’s got to roll into the shore
|
| Yes, and if my love’s in vain
|
| How come my love is so strong?
|
| If I’ve been hard on you
|
| I never chose to be
|
| I never wanted no one else
|
| I’ve tried my best to be somebody you’d be close to
|
| Hand in hand
|
| Like lovers are supposed to
|
| Supposed to be
|
| Now, you and me, we go parallel
|
| Together and apart
|
| And you keep the perfect distance
|
| And it’s tearing at my heart
|
| 'Cause you never feel the distance
|
| But you never tried to cross no lines
|
| 'Cause it’s another dirty river
|
| And another dirty scar
|
| And I don’t know who’s kissing you
|
| And I don’t know where you are
|
| So far from home
|
| Won’t you think of me sometime?
|
| If I’ve been hard on you
|
| I never chose to be
|
| I never wanted no one else
|
| I’ve tried my best to be somebody you’d be close to
|
| Hand in hand
|
| Like lovers are supposed to
|
| If I’ve been hard on you
|
| I never chose to be
|
| I never wanted no one else
|
| I’ve tried my best to be somebody you’d be close to
|
| Hand in hand
|
| Like lovers are supposed to
|
| Well, the sky is crying
|
| See, the streets are full of tears
|
| Rain come down
|
| Wash away my fears
|
| And all this writing on the wall
|
| Oh, I can read between the lines. |
