Let It Rain

Leaving on a Mayday Fine summer pain In his heart, on his tongue The taste is sweet again Leaving on a Mayday Fine summer pain But his head's a feather His mind can take all His feet are moving again Let it rain on me, let it rain Let it rain on me, let it rain Morning comes, wakes him up He looks out at the parking lot Sees the house he was born Almost fifty seven years ago Where his brother lives, where his sister moved And all three went to and finished school Where their father died in fifty nine, mother did sixty three He's reminded of her when he looks at me Let it rain on me, let it rain Let it rain on me, let it rain Let it rain on me, let it rain Let it rain on me That's how, that's how all things grow That's how, that's how all things grow I've been waiting for the news, he said Twenty years I've been waiting For the last pages in a book I read Of love, death and endless need About you, your sister, your mother and me Even the happiest families bleed I want to get even, making it last Get every bastard from the past Let it rain on me, let it rain Let it rain on me, let it rain Let it rain on me, let it rain Oh, let it rain on me That's how, that's how all things grow That's how, that's how all things grow That's how, that's how all things grow That's how, that's how all things grow I want to get even, making it last Get every bastard from the past I want to get even, making it last Get every bastard from the past I want to get even, making it last Get every bastard from the past
