You Cant Stop the Rain

is there somthing missing
is there somthing missing 
is there somthing missing

can you help me 
help me find peace inside
sir can you leed me 
into the cradle of life

fountains flow and hedgerows grow
cars are fast and hearts are slow
the chimes of midnight calling 
please forgive me

tears flow like flooded lands
i reach out for your hand
rivers of dreams taken from me
you cant stop the rain 
from drowing you

the bus re-joins the flooded highway
puddles of resentment mar the way
knowing you dont care anymore makes this journey harder 
to see your face out on the road
its not enough to stop the rain

fountains flow and hedgerows grow
cars are fast and hearts are slow
the chimes of midnight calling 
please forgive me

tears flow like flooded lands
i reach out for your hand
rivers of dreams taken from me
you cant stop the rain 
from drowing you
