I Wish It Would Rain

Silence is breakin' like rain pourin' down
I wanted to tell you but I didn't know how
Truth is a dark cloud that won't go away
It lives in the shadow of what we don't say
Tonight is a long one, no candles for the dark
Wind blows down the hallway, no shelter for a heart
If I had wings, fly you away
Safe at the distance from this lonely place.

Oh! I know... I know you're gonna cry tonight
So sorry baby
Wish I could make it right
Oh, I know, I know, I know
I know you're gonna cry tonight.

Thunder's soundin' closer now
I wish it would rain
Wish the sky will open up
And rain
There is a mountain beyond these walls
Some climb in darkness or never climb at all
Some have to take it purely on faith
Someday I'll see that light on your face.
If I were an angel I'd drink up your tears
Swallow the sadness till it all disappears
If I were blind then I wouldn't see
Sweet eyes believing trusting in me.

And I know... I know you're gonna cry tonight
I'm sorry baby
Wish I could make it right
Oh, I know, I know, I know
I know you're gonna cry tonight.

Thunder's sounding closer now
Wish it would rain
Wish the sky would open up
And rain.
