Rain's a Comin'

Children 18:3 Rain's a Comin'歌詞
1.Rain's 'a Comin'

Crawl down
Won't you come on down
Run down with me
Fly down
Come on down
Run down
The rain's coming!

The ship was all but grounded for the tide had not come in
After forty days of waiting for the journey to begin
Now the castaways are stranded and the natives have grown thin
And the fuses that were lit have come to their end

Crawl down
Won't you come on down
Run down with me
Fly down
Come on down
Run down
The rain's coming!


2.Cover Your Eyes

Dear Emily,
I don't think I believe in you anymore.
It's a mystery, but what I'm seein' I haven't seen before.

And with these tears you loose the last of my restraints.
Cover your eyes!
She said run but I'm not running, no I'm not running.
Let 'em come, let 'em come, but I'm not running.
No, I ain't running no more.

So you're asking me to see the truth as before.
But if it hasn't occurred to you yet, this could be the past.
The past no more.

And if these tears should prove the last of my escape,
cover your eyes!
She said run, but I'm not running no I'm not running.
Let 'em come, let 'em come but I'm not running,
no, I ain't running no more. No more!

The trees have all begun the dance elated by a second chance.
But when a windmill blows it's not hooked up to anything except
a breeze.

She said run, but I'm not running NO!
She said run, she said run, (run away, run away, run!)
she said run, (run away, run away, run!)
she said run, but I'm not running, no I ain't running no more.


3.The Cruel One

Flying over the counter
Broken glasses on the floor
The smell of fear and two toned hair
And a smoke trail out the door
Counting back from a hundred
And they moved the show outside
Back and forth, and front to back
To seek the ones that hide
They don't want to be found!

They're running from Cruella Deville
They don't know she is the mob, she runs this town
She's all evil and she's dying to kill
You don't know

Sergeant Tibbs, can you hear us?
Hear the howling on the wind?
Everybody's nervous here and anxious to begin
There's a spark at the curtains taking our last place to hide
Tell all the kids on the playground to get on their bikes and
ride, and ride, and ride!!

They're running from Cruella Deville
They don't know she is the mob, she runs this town
She's all evil and she's dying to kill
You don't know

Oh, lest she find you
Oh, she is right behind you!

They're running from Cruella Deville
They don't know she is the mob, she runs this town
She's all evil and she's dying to kill
You don't know
They're running from Cruella Deville
They don't know she is the mob, she runs this town
She's all evil and she's dying to kill

5.Hey Driftwood (Tides)

Every man accounted for, but lost in something tangibly unclear
I thought about the things we'd lost and won
Like a record store full of rhymes and candy
when Sheena's ready for guns and rock n' roll
I confess I was falling asleep with a whirlwind at my door

Always to the east our eyes are looking at the dawn
Formally requesting, but the answers never come

Oh, a hundred years could pass
What is forever?
Living proof of boy and girl
We've got each other

I told' em all once and they said I was right
But you never get strong if you win it without a fight
Oh, spit it out on the ground, we'll reach the other side
Well, she packed up her life to head down to the city
When the ticket man asked she just smiled 'I ain't comin' back!'
Hey driftwood, will you lead me to the sea?

Always to the east our eyes are looking at the dawn
Formally requesting but the answers never come

Oh, a hundred years could pass
What is forever?
Time is non-existent for today as long as we're together
Oh, and every moment comes just a little faster
Living proof of boy and girl
We've got each other

In a moment here we all may die
Know one now is quite aware just why
Summer nights that we vowed to remember turned to nightmare
Father Time has not appointed us for ever
Listen to summer nights that we vowed to remember turn to
nightmare
Father Time has not appointed us forever
Summer nights that we vowed to remember turned to nightmare
Father Time has not appointed us for ever
Listen to summer nights that we vowed to remember turn to
nightmare
Father Time has not appointed us forever

Oh, a hundred years could pass
What is forever?
Time is non-existent for today as long as we're together
Oh, and every moment comes just a little faster
Living proof of boy and girl
We've got each other


6.Oh Bravo

I couldn't see beyond the corner to the stage
From my place between the cowboy and the clown
Mommy dressed me up and left me with a kiss
For the talent show now beginning, the curtain coming down
Just enough to hear them say

Oh bravo, you're the best, there is no one else
Oh bravo, our applause is not enough
Can you hear us yell out, yell out?
On and on we go Bravo

One by one they came and left us all amazed
Everyone so elegant, it made me feel so plain
The clown so colorful, the ballerina danced and twirled
And I thought 'Clearly they're all better then my little song!'
And they deserve to hear the praise

Oh bravo, you're the best, there is no one else
Oh bravo, our applause is not enough
Can you hear us yell out, yell out?
On and on we go Bravo

Running off the stage with bitter tears of shame
Close my eyes and tried so hard to make it go away
I just want to go home and tell my teddy bear 'I failed, I
failed!'
I turned around the corner just to hear my daddy say

Oh bravo, you're the best, you're my only one
Oh bravo, that will always be enough
Look at me, you're song was beautiful, beautiful
Even if nobody ever knows Bravo

Oh bravo, you're the best, there is no one else
Oh bravo, our applause is not enough
Can you hear us yell out, yell out?
On and on we go Bravo
Oh bravo, you're the best, there is no one else
Oh bravo, our applause is not enough
Can you hear us yell out, yell out?
On and on we go Bravo


7.Oh Honestly!

Isn't it easier if you want it like that
to run away baby, never come back
Then to sit around and cry?

Oh, honestly!

If you try to find a problem here, you probably will
It's ok to cry and it's right to try
Just don't let it bring on a standstill
Cause these things all take time

Listen to the wind blow over the branches
Listen to the waves crash on the shore
I don't have the big plan, just small glances
and every now and then I'm still unsure

Oh, honestly!

Would you try and grasp at an empty heaven
And bank you hopes on rain that may not fall?
I'm not expressing failure
I'm just suggesting, to walk you first crawl
And when they ask you why tell' em...

Listen to the wind blow over the branches
Listen to the waves crash on the shore
I don't have the big plan, just small glances
and every now and then I'm still unsure

I failed to recognize that the curtain had come down
I tried to apologize but they'd already skipped town

Isn't it easier if you want it like that
to run away baby, never look back
Then to sit around and cry?

Listen to the wind blow over the branches
Listen to the waves crash on the shore
I don't have the big plan, just small glances
and every now and then I'm still unsure
Listen to the wind blow over the branches
Listen to the waves crash on the shore
You'll never move ahead if you don't take chances
And it's ok to be unsure
Oh, honestly!


8.Wonder I

Step into the window/ What about the sun?
Follow me outside/ When rain's are coming down?
I don't have the reasons/ Can we chase the wind?
If we feel inclined

Wonder, wonder I
If I stood on your shoulders, could I touch the sky?
When will you die?
Where will you go?
Wonder, wonder I

Sister cast a shadow/ Brother tell me why
You're holding back the sun/ No! It can't be done
We're towering to these spiders/ But I feel so small
It's alright/ Is it ok?
It's ok, I feel small too

Wonder, wonder I
If I stood on your shoulders, could I touch the sky?
When will you die?
Where will you go?
Wonder, wonder I

You and I standing here throwing pebbles in the water
As they fall watch the circles growing farther and farther
To no end like Daddy said, they carry on into Forever

Wonder, wonder I
If I stood on your shoulders, could I touch the sky?
When will you die?
Where will you go?
Wonder, wonder I


9.Stronger

I was caught up in a sandbar for the tide had not come in
And the ship was all but grounded here, waiting to begin
There's a trick to understanding what it is you couldn't see
And a map without a compass is impossible to read

Lights out, a pillowcase to cry on
A good friend to rely on for a prayer
Oh please be careful my brother
The fighting will never be fair

Oh, it can only make me stronger
Cast the weight away
Oh, stronger and stronger
Sail away, away

The pathway to the future is always straight ahead
So I took off in that direction just to see where it led
The weather's nice in Florida when you come from the midwest
But pretty soon it turned to desert and it's sure been a test

Take heart behind the bathroom door
A good shoulder to cry on unaware
But don't forget that a kick in the face is for some daily fare

Oh, it can only make me stronger
Cast the weight away
Oh, stronger and stronger
Sail away, away

And it's struggle that I can't escape
But it's something I can run to

Oh, it can only make me stronger
Cast the weight away
Oh, stronger and stronger
Sail away, away


10.Jack 'o' Lantern Dreams

How can I explain when you just don't get it?
I'll take half a grapefruit and tea
How can I explain when you just won't see it?
Nothing here but jack 'o' lantern dreams

Remember through the darkness that we waltz on a knife
For the union of disunion and fight
The contagious in their cages
And the rest of us dodging the curse
When the answers to these cancers is far worse

Only if you can remember the ending
Can we then work back toward the start
Nothing here but Jack and his dreams.


11.Lost So Long

I've been lost so long I can barely see
Clawing halfway home, hit the edge of Kansas City

One small swansong in my head across the ground
I was the chimes moving on through the wind
But every word was empty sound

Close your eyes, baby sleep
float across the gentle sea
Every dream turning grey
Holds the promises of rain coming

I smelled the wind and it turned me back like a staggering blow
We came to the edge and I shut my eyes
I could tell you what we found there,
but nobody really wants to know

Close your eyes, baby sleep
float across the gentle sea
Every dream turning grey
Holds the promises of rain coming
Close your eyes, baby sleep
float across the gentle sea
Every dream turning grey
Holds the promises of rain coming

Please just take us home
There's nothing left to stand on here anymore

Close your eyes, baby sleep
Float across the gentle sea
Close your eyes, baby sleep
float across the gentle sea
Every cloud turning grey
Holds the promises of rain coming
