When the rains came down My world was enormous Scenic and peaceful And man was no monster And the people were caring Hopeful and happy Time so precious Honest and easy Then the rains came down Then the rains came down Then the rains came down When the rains came down We lost time for a minute As all became children Nervous and giddy And we wonder about Lost sight of it all The rain from the skies Attempted to fall It was dark and empty Cold like a headache The silhouettes danced And all became frantic Do I stick to my post? Tell me, Do I stick to my post? Stranded alone As the rains came down As the rains came down As the rains came down It was dark and empty Cold like a headache The silhouettes danced And all became frantic Do I stick to my post? Tell me, Do I stick to my post? Stranded alone It was dark and empty Cold like a headache The silhouettes danced And all became frantic Do I stick to my post? Tell me, Do I stick to my post? Stranded alone As the rains came down As the rains came down As the rains came down What I wouldn't give to be home? What I wouldn't give to be safe and warm? What I wouldn't give to be out of the storm? I'm telling the story of how When the rains came down When the rains came down When the rains came down
