|
Can't help it if I have a widower's heart |
|
Tried to get out of bed but I can't seem to start |
|
When I hit the road it was freezing and dark |
|
I hope that it's warmer wherever you are |
|
I said I was sorry and turned to explain |
|
The room it was empty and bitter and drained |
|
No songs from the angels, no blood in my vein |
|
Could ever replace you and here I remain |
|
Oh, rain. |
|
Come wash me and keep me and take me away. |
|
New York was a rough place that suited me well |
|
You bragged of religion and put me through hell |
|
Maybe I'm better off, maybe it's hard to tell |
|
When I left you were sleeping through trumpets and bells |
|
Oh, rain. |
|
Come wash me and keep me and take me away. |
|
One moment of peace that would suit me so fine |
|
There's echoes and glimpses of beautiful times |
|
I'm sure it's much harder on your end than mine |
|
If you ever pass through here I'm not hard to find |
|
Oh, rain. |
|
Come wash me and keep me and take me away. |
|
Oh, rain. |
|
Come wash me and keep me and take me away. |
