Gutters Full Of Rain

歌詞

A gutter full of rain An empty picture frame A house out at the edges of the city Never noticing the war 'Till it's right there at your door And suddenly your hands are bloody I was seeking to possess Now another girl's caress Is on your flesh The bitterness is tasted There's nobody in your chair No hand to touch my hair The sun even the air seems wasted Let it go now, let it all slip away And we'll start it all over again Me, like a million others before Trying to make sense of the rain Were these twenty years a dream Was it ever as it seemed Get to wonder if it really existed 'Cause the thief who stole my life Has taken, too, my faith I can see now how the world gets twisted Let it go now, let it all slip away And we'll start it all over again Me, like a million others before Trying to make sense of the rain In spite of all the shame Some times I hear your name I think of us when we were younger Then I'm shutting out the noise And I'm trying to hear the voice That used to tell me love was stronger Light another cigarette But the one I got's still lit I can't seem to keep my fingers steady Never noticing the war 'Till it's right there at your door And suddenly your hands are bloody
