Rain
~~~~~
Written by Dennis DeYoung
Lead Vocals by Dennis DeYoung

Rain, falling down on me
Washing away my sanity
Rain, drowning to the core
Soaking into every pore

Oh, how I long to see the sun
In a sky of perfect blue
With the sunlight on my face
But there's nothing I can do

Rain, more than I can bear
Levees breaking everywhere
Rain, like no time before
Flooding in from every door

Oh, as I watch the bridges fall
I have lost my will to dream
And I have no voice at all
From a whisper to a scream

Here in the heart of darkness
Here in the eye of the storm

Drowning in a sea of grief
Without escape, without relief
I feel it slowly seeping in my brain

The rain

It's over and over

The rain

It's over and over

Rain, swirling in the sky
God I beg you, tell me why
Rain, thundering like Hell
As I watch the rivers swell

Oh, how I wish the sun could shine
And the clouds would pass away
But the simple fact remains
That the rain is here to stay

Here in the heart of darkness
Here in the eye of the storm

Drowning in a sea of grief
Without escape, without relief
I feel it slowly seeping in my brain

The rain

Over and over

The rain

So over and over

Drowning in a sea of grief
I feel it slowly seeping in my brain

Here in the heart of darkness
Here in the eye of the storm

Drowning in a sea of grief
Without escape, without relief
I feel it slowly seeping in my brain

The rain

Oh, it's over and over

The rain

Yes, it's over and over
