Intro

Heavy thoughts aloof
Drizzle on the roof

Going to be a monsoon
Going to be a gale soon

First verse

I could drown in the sound
Or the water on the ground
All the vagrants in town
Shiver, shudder, hide out

Second verse

So come inside with me
Or hide beneath the tree
Let this all blow past us
See how long denial can last us

Buildup from lull

And then we'll go to sleep
dry and warm
Pretend I'm not afraid of the storm

First chorus

I can hear the rain
It's coming, and it burgeons
I can hear the rain
In sheets and waves and curtains
Battering the breaches
Baton down the hatches
Pray the long reaches of the rain
Bring us sunshine and peaches

Puddles splashing
Babies napping
Alone with nothing happening
Put my coat on
Decide to stay home
Wish I was with someone

Bridge

Rain rain go away
You already ****** up one day
Rain rain go away
The sky cried for hours today

A squall, deluge, downpour
The one to run for life for
Fight for, prepare, and die for
But still there comes more

Lull

But then the sun comes out
A glimmer through the clouds
I think it's letting up

Build

But then I hear the sound
It ******* shakes the ground
Like the heavens themselves
Screaming aloud

Build

Blustering, twisting,
Buffeting and blistering
Forget the shutters
Hear the thunder
Crack the sky asunder

Build

Protect the others
Save the children
Save the mothers

Crescendo

I can hear the rain
It's here it rages, and surges
I can hear the rain
In sheets and waves and curtains
Battering the breaches
Baton down the hatches
Pray the long reaches of the rain
Bring us sunshine and peaches
