lyrics

THE RAIN’S NOT TRAVELING ALONE

I can hear each raindrop
Banging on the tin roof
Singing every saddest song
But you won’t hear a solution
Just another memory
‘Cause the rain’s not traveling alone

I can hear old crying
like a harmony
With new faces I blame it on
And I guess I’m on a pony running faster than me
‘Cause the rain’s not traveling alone

The rain’s not traveling alone
The rain’s not traveling alone
You can threaten and pray but it will return someday
The rain’s not traveling alone

I can raise my wishes to a higher place
Swearing I won’t repeat my wrongs
But that ghost of every retreat
Just sits and rattles his chains
And says “the rain’s not traveling alone”

Every fleshy second
Every breathing hour
Comes another test of hope
So I’ll button up my jacket
And I’ll cover my ears
‘Cause the rain’s not traveling alone
