we live with the rain

lyrics

we all dream of the sun,
but live with the rain
we all think of someone,
we may never see again

and when the waters come, it all floats away
things we lost in the flood, can't all be replaced

we all dream of the sun..

the bridge went out as the river rose and the sun died slow
even the birds overhead were sounding alarm for their neighbors below

there goes the drive and the mailbox too
there goes the front porch and the living room
there goes the curtains and now it's climbing the stairs
there goes the dream you built on a hill
there goes the photo albums and the record albums too
there goes the couch where i made love to you
there goes the kitchen i tiled myself
there goes the books way up on the shelf
there goes the city in a 500 year storm
there goes the hospital where your children were born
there goes our future along with the past
there goes our dreams and they're sinking fast

let it go, let-it-go, let-it-go, let it go, let-it-go, let-it-go...

time's just a river sometimes it overflows
torrents of change abandon the ghost
let it go, let-it-go, let-it-go, let it go, let-it-go, let-it-go...

time's just a river sometimes it overflows
torrents of change abandon the ghost

we all dream of the sun,
but live with the rain
we all think of someone,
we may never see again

and when the waters come, it all floats away
things we lost in the flood, can't all be replaced

we all dream of the sun
