Stop The Rain

Remember when you stopped the rain?
Remember when you eased my pain?
When your soft touch drove me insane
with love and joy, with lust and fear, and as you kissed away each tear
I knew that this is what I want.

But now again the rain must start
not to repair but break my heart
and tear my whole wide world apart.
It’s ripping at the seams and I just can’t breathe
and all I can do now is just wonder where I went wrong.

I thought that you would stop the rain
but all you do is bring me pain.
Each thought of you drives me insane.
Each dream fills me with empty spaces, holes that no one else can fill but you.
And if I tried to go on like I never knew you the rain would never stop.

Do you think you can stop the rain
from falling, can you ease my pain again?
Will your touch drive me insane again?
These are things I’ll never know.
Eyes that sparkle in the moonlight, my escape from bumps in the night.
My hour glass could soon run out, each day I cry, I scream, I shout ‘cause nothings going right.
Just cradle my head in my hands for the moment,
It’s too late to find the rewind button now, too late to go back, I’ve run out of time.
Am I meant to drown in all my pain or
baby can you stop the rain
