It's funny how the rain can wash away the day and
somehow still leave me lonely inside, feeling so far away.

If you were to take away from me all of the memories,
floating like the twigs and leaves piled at the end of the street,
would I seem to be as fresh as the air smells clean
from these monsters in my head that don't give me rest or sleep?

Well the rain doesn't fall quite so sleepily on me, and I ache
for the sun to shine again, and maybe bring me some peace.

See, I've been troubled for some time now with a home so far away
My little heart & soul were taken, and even with years I just can't shake the lonely hopeless feeling that don't ever wash away.
And if the clouds don't part, than forever in the dark   I'll stay  


Well, the rain has stopped now and the wind is dying down,
and I'm still here in this quiet little town
wondering how much farther to go to prove to myself
it don't matter none too much where ya started out,
it's how we all end up that's got us upside-down

Well, the rain doesn't fall quite so sleepily on me,
and I ache for the sun to shine again
and maybe    bring me      some  peace .
