Song | Tears Falling Down on Me |
Artist | Carole King |
Album | Colour of Your Dreams |
作词 : King | |
Vera comes home on Sunday morning after hanging with the boys all night | |
Laughing and drinking with them, thinking she's one of them | |
And that makes everything allright | |
She vaguely remembers going out in the parking lot | |
With the stone mason's son | |
Who had his way with her, then walked away when he was done | |
Sometimes she thinks about leaving--she tells herself, someday | |
You know, her daddy said she'd never amount to much | |
Of anything anyway | |
Oh, tears falling down on me | |
Oh, tears falling down on me | |
No, that ain't the way it's supposed to be | |
Oh, tears falling down on me | |
Oh, tears falling down on me | |
I've cried so many tears over man's unkindness to man | |
People say that's the way it is, but we gotta do what we can | |
Why does it have to be that way, I just don't understand | |
Rain falling from my eyes, rain falling from the sky | |
And I don't know why | |
A pack of jokers get their jollies beating up on a black king | |
There's outrage in the city for a while | |
But do you think it'll really change anything | |
Get rid of the gates, free the people | |
And let the games commence | |
We gotta take our power back | |
And use it in ways that make sense | |
Oh, tears falling down on me | |
Oh, tears falling down on me | |
If I could, I would change the course of history | |
Oh, tears falling down on me | |
Oh, tears falling down on me | |
Oh, tears falling down on me | |
Oh, rain washing over me | |
Oh, tears falling down on me | |
Oh, pain washing over me | |
Rain, wash it away, rain, wash it away | |
Wash the pain away, rain, wash it away | |
Oh, tears falling down on me | |
Oh, tears falling down on me |
