Rain City

Opened my eyes, had a dream last night
That both my arms were broken
Evening time
Help me now or hold me down
I feel my world is tumbling
Spiralling down
Oh my love I can't let go
Something's wrong, I can't let go
Nature's cruel she laughs at me
As I make my way through the century
As I slowly turn to house dust
Tumbling down
The rain comes down like a victory
In sheets of shining memory
Over and over circling around
Oh my love I can't let go
Something's wrong, I can't let go
Nature's cruel she laughs at me
Almost too much for my heart
When it rains
Oh tears my soul apart
When it rains
It rains so slowly
In the city where I'm from
