Lyrics Rain - Michael Oakley

Rain

I’ve got to get out
This city’s like a graveyard pulling me down
I scream and I shout
But no one hears the words that I’m trying to say
I’ve been feeling for a while like I don’t belong
Been tryin to get it right but so far I’ve been wrong
And even though I’m weak I’ve been trying to be strong
For too long, too long, too long, too long…
These are the days when the rain pours down
You’re never sure if you’re lost or found
If I could be someone else for a day
Maybe I’d find my way back home
I’ll pretend that I’m lost
On the tail of an Atlantic breeze
I’ll be the man that I want
The kind that writes his own philosophies
You know it’s funny how we strive for a lifetime
Never knowing what it is that can satisfy
It’s the only thought that fills a one track mind
To keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on…
These are the days when the rain pours down
You’re never sure if you’re lost or found
If I could be someone else for a day
Maybe I’d find my way back home
These are the days when the rain pours down
Thirty years caught in a border town
So take a chance and step out
Maybe we’ll find a way back home
