Lyrics
BRING DOWN THE RAIN
Words by Michael Slack
Music by Gawain Mathews
Out of the blue you asked me: If I think you're fine
'N I was stunned and speechless, the wheels froze up in my mind.
By the time I got back on track you'd up and run a way
Not hearing what I feel about you every single day.
Chorus
There are questions we won't answer
For fear they'll cause us pain.
Other things we don't ask why
For fear we'll go insane.
And though I'd like to bring you sweet sunshine
It's always such a shame.
It seems I can only just bring down the rain.
You came back to ask me if I wanted you for life.
I couldn't get the words in time, so you just started cryin'.
And asked me f you went away would I cry all day too?
And I said No 'cause that's the plain truth, but it broke your heart in two.
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
I know you think you've heard it all
Your sad eyes tell me so.
But you ain't heard the half of it
So I'm tellin' you - o-o-o-oh.
You're not just pretty, you're more beautiful than any star I see
I don't want you just for this life but for all eternity.
And would the tears fall down like rain if you left me all alone?
No, darlin', I'd just die for you're my life, my only one.
Repeat Chorus
