Píseň: Rain
- Interpret:
- Kris Kristofferson
- Album:
- Breakaway
Rain falling always falling pain hurting never ending Tear come off tears of sorrow fear after day tomorrow Cry when there's no use crying goodbye there's no use trying It all runs together when your love once are gone And your head spins in circles you're lyin' with your face down and you're afraid Salvation army band playin' in their all night stand Rain pourin' from the sky blind people passin' by No one will help 'em now no one will even try It all runs together... This is his time at last (this is his time) his life is fading fast His faith is fled away (his faith is gone) he tries but cannot break This is the way we live (this is the way) we take and never give It all runs together... Rain falling always falling... Someone could have helped him but no one would try Cause their pride wouldn't let them and now he's gonna die there in the rain Shall we gather at the rain (shall we gather at the river)
