Since I lost all my solutions.
I feel I’m living on the line.
It seems to me, if I can’t choose to be free,
At least I’ll choose to be all right.
My mother told me, “Boy do something.
Don’t use your life to pass the time.
Don’t sell your soul. Just let your heart take hold.
I know that you’ll be doing fine.
Oh rainy day take my sun away. Take my sun away.
Take my sun.
In this battle with my feelings, give me back a little healing.
Take my sun away. Take my sun.
It seems like all these conversations
Go running sideways through my head.
And sticks and stones can be used to build a home.
And words can change most anything.
Oh rainy day take my sun away. Take my sun away.
Take my sun.
In this battle with my feelings, give me back a little healing.
Take my sun away. Take my sun.
This ain’t just a problem that we tie up in the weather.
But it’s falling on us all.
It’s falling on us all.
I keep believing that we’re gonna make it better.
We keep changing everything we see
We’re starting out with you and me
Alone.
Oh rainy day take my sun away. Take my sun away.
Take my sun.
In this battle with my feelings, give me back a little healing.
Take my sun away. Take my sun.
Oh rainy day take my sun away. Take my sun away.
Take my sun.
Oh rainy day, won’t you wash away.
Take my sun away. Take my sun.
Now we’ve been playing with this fire.
Hoping that we won’t burn away.
Well, you can burn alive, so let’s put it out this time.
And I’ll keep praying for the rain.
I’ll keep praying for the rain.
