The day the rain came down

(I remember) trains and boats and planes

and people from the past

always making promises you know things that'll never last

and fever broke when the storms took hold

and morale was at an all time low

and you were staying up 'till dawn reading Crowley and Allan Poe

and I was thinking back to the time when I was nine and

you were ten

you had a magic set that turned me into you then I said

hey the day the rain came down that's the day you weren't around

I was lost in the woods one time and the sky was losing light

I was brave and sixteen then I thought well hell I'll stay all night

I took the sun from the sky and held it in my arms for a souvenir

the sound of ringing bells awoke me as the dawn was drawing near

and you were standing there casting spells like they grow on trees

I've seen it all

and for your next trick maybe you could tell me who said

hey the day the rain came down
