There's a runaway On a cold big city street Trying her best to stay warm On a subway grate She kneels down for the heat And prays for shelter from the storm As people hurry by on their way home Where they dream Of a world without sadness and pain They turn their heads Not a one of them feels ashamed What's another tear in the rain There the old man stands In a station for a western train Going to where, he don't know They call him when they can But it still just ain't the same He's learning to leave and let go As people hurry by on their way home Where they dream Of a word without sadness and pain They turn their heads Not a one of them feels ashamed What's another tear in the rain When I was a kid It all seemed oh so simple and clear We're supposed to take care of each other While we're here But we turn our heads Not a one of us feels ashamed What's another tear in the rain What's another tear in the rain (HARP SOLO) (GUITAR STUFF) Lyrics are copyright 1997?, John Dillon & Steve Cash
