Lyrics
Rainman
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The butter flowers are in bloom
But you're staying in
The beauty that you know from before
Don't mean a thing now
Loving you is like waiting for the rain to come
Loving you is like waiting for the rain to come
Loving you is like waiting for the rain to come
There are others way to love than to love a man
Other ways to fill your life
With meaning
Maybe there's a city somewhere
Where you won't feel alien
If new friends are waiting for you
Go sail with them
Loving you is like waiting for the rain to come
Loving you is like waiting for the rain to come
Loving you is like waiting for the rain to come
Loving you is like waiting for the rain to come
