|
I stand at the window |
|
Looking out, looking out at the grey |
|
After getting up and reading the paper today |
|
Sometimes I just want to crawl back in bed |
|
Pull the covers over my eyes |
|
This world is so full of trouble |
|
All the war planes in the sky |
|
chorus: |
|
And it looks like rain |
|
Can't you hear the thunder |
|
And it looks like rain |
|
Don't it make you wonder |
|
Killers make the front page |
|
Good deeds go unnoticed |
|
Seems like, like there's no change |
|
No matter what the vote is |
|
It used to be we were |
|
All looking out for everybody else |
|
But now it seems the only law is |
|
Every man for himself |
|
(chorus) |
|
And it looks like rain |
|
Can't you hear the thunder |
|
It looks like rain |
|
Don't it make you |
|
And it looks like rain |
|
Falling down my eyes |
|
It looks like rain |
|
Don't you wonder why |
|
I hear, hear it pounding |
|
In the courtrooms and halls |
|
I hear, hear it sounding |
|
Through these paper-thin walls |
|
I can hear people lying under oath |
|
Lovers breaking their vows |
|
I don't want to give up hope |
|
Is it too late now |
|
chorus: |
|
And it looks like rain |
|
Can't you hear the thunder |
|
It looks like rain |
|
Don't it make you |
|
And it looks like rain |
|
Falling down my eyes |
|
It looks like rain |
|
Don't you wonder why |
|
And it looks like rain |
|
Can't you hear the thunder |
|
It looks like rain |
|
Don't it make you |
|
It looks like rain |
|
(Repeat chorus and fade) |
