Lyrics

Footprints in the Rain

Verse 1
While we are rushing down a crowded street,
My fingers tight around your hand
With all these people here I can't compete.
I find it hard to understand.
And all these faces here they hide their pain
Their expressions look the same.
Footprints in the rain.

Verse 2
I hear the drumbeat and I fall in line.
I won't question what you're saying.
And though I don't want to be left behind,
it's an awful price we're paying.
And though we can't remember why we came.
We keep coming back again.
Footprints in the rain.

Bridge
Can we stop and think this through,
what it does to me and you
Why do you walk away? Are you so afraid?

Verse 3
I try so hard just to keep up with you.
You're just dragging me along
It's pretty hard to say I love you.
When you're always moving on
And if I fall down now it is a shame.
I will slowly melt away.
Footprints in the rain
