Wish It Would Rain Lyrics

You've got a blessing and a curse
You've got a sickness growing worse
You need a magic wand
And a dream you can rely on

You've got scars on your back
You're like an animal caught in a trap
You've got a pocket full of sand
And a trembling hand
And no one can understand

Well sometimes I just wish it would rain
Sometimes I just wish it would rain
Rain on you and me
Rain all over the dry dry ground
Rain all over the sad sad souls
That surround you and me

You're a soldier who can't come home
And a mother looking out the window
Waiting for you to walk through the door

You feel blind at the carnival
Stumbling like a criminal
With nothing but a bottle
And an old baby rattle in your hand

Well sometimes I just wish it would rain
Sometimes I just wish it would rain
Rain on you and me
Rain all over the dry dry ground
Rain all over the sad sad souls
That surround you and me

Rain take a way the sadness
Take away the madness
Can you wash us clean?
Can you wash us clean?
Clean
Clean
Clean

You're a small voice on the phone
Coming from somewhere I don't know
Say, man, I don't think I can keep going on

Well sometimes I just wish it would rain
Sometimes I just wish it would rain
Rain on you and me
Rain all over the dry dry ground
Rain all over the sad sad souls
That surround you and me

You and me
You and me
You and me
You and me
