Hear the rolling thunder
It's always got a story to tell
If ever you should wonder
You're only falling under its spell
Wait for me darling, I'm almost home
Ignore the thunder, 'cause we are all outnumbered
Weary as a lover
Who, saddled with fatigue, never stalls
If ever you should wonder
The farther in, the deeper the fall
Pray for me darling, I'm almost home
And when the storm breaks up
Will you still stay close to me?
I know the nightmare's all but done
Can we ever go back to being
Rain on open water?
Fear and love together
The two are never safe for the soul
Stoking at the embers
That with ignition burn out a hole
Pray for me darling, I'm all alone
When the storm breaks up
Will you still stay close to me?
I know the nightmare's almost done
But can we ever go back to being
Rain on open water?
Rain on open water
This is the best I ever could do
This is the last I've given for you
And as our bombs fall
Tears from the sky
I won't reply
This is the best I ever could do
This is the last I've given for you
When the storm clears up
And there's no one close to me
When my nightmare's just begun
Can we ever go back to being
When the storm clears up
And there's no one close to me
When my nightmare's just begun
Can we ever go back to being
Rain on open water?
Storm clears up
Still stay close to me
When my nightmare's just begun
Can we ever go back to being?
