A thing called rain

I think I'll quit my job today,

Spend the money that I saved

I think I'll build a boat for me

And sail myself across the sea

Cause' every night the sun goes down

And the morning helps me come around

The coffee likes to chase the booze

The booze it likes to chase the blues

I kept your picture in a frame

I kept your heart out on a chain

But hearts don't belong on chains

And pictures don't belong in frames

People come and people go

Foe to friend and friend to foe

And you do just what yer supposed to do

Cause the clock don't ever stop for you

she thinks she knows me oh so well

for six nights in a cheap motel,

she gave her heart away for free

she gave it all away to me

but im needle dancin' on a pin

match under my heels again

not every bird will sing for you

don't matter how you ask her to

can't believe the way she acts

she doesn't even know the facts

but ain't that just the way it goes

when you're telling truth in liars clothes

born and raised and born again

and I can't tell you why or when

but everything will happen twice

sure as fire, sure as ice

so it's broken hearts and dusty roads

and somewhere there my soul explodes

with every piece of every day

and everything I meant to say

and where I'll be, no one can tell

I'm fishing in a wishing well

and i'm doing the very best I can

I just hope you'll understand

now I seen all the lights that shine

countless colors in my mind

they climb and swim and spark and glow

and ask me what it is I know

I know a thing called love

a thing called thunder in the sky above

now I know a thing called pain

now I know a thing called rain
