It's a strange kind of concept You might just see it that way from the Beginning of time, we followed the stars Never knowing what tomorrow would bring Thunderheads and desert winds Twisters and storms on the sea we never Know what comes, but we take it in part And it falls down on you and on me Well it's the same rain Been there since the earth, was a child of the sun It's the same rain Falling on you and on me And it fell on the heads of the conquistadors It flowed from the hills to the sea and it Fell on the wood, the blood and the hands Pierced right down to the bone It flew in the face of Genghis the Khan It watered the dry hills of spain when the Armada sailed, to take us all down It blew them right back again Well it's the same rain Been there since the earth, was a child of the sun It's the same rain Falling on you and on me The sweet rain brings the grain seeds to life And the wild rain drowns the shore and there's a Lesson we learned, way back in time That our days are numbered for sure Rising tides and melting ice Mountains are washed to the sea we can Message the world, in a second or two But we can't read the edge of the wind Well it's the same rain Been there since the earth, was a child of the sun It's the same rain Falling on you and on me It's the same rain Falling on you and on me
