DIRE STRAITS - Hand In Hand lyrics

rate me

The sky is crying the streets are full of tears<br>Rain come down wash away my fears<br>And all this writing on the wall<br>Oh I can read between the lines<br>Rain come down forgive this dirty town<br>Rain come down and give this dirty town<br>A drink of water a drink of wine<br><br>If I been hard on you I never chose to be<br>I never wanted no one else<br>I tried my best to be somebody you'd be close to<br>Hand in hand like lovers are supposed to<br><br>As you'd sleep I'd think my heart would break in two<br>I'd kiss your cheek I'd stop myself from waking you<br>But in the dark you'd speak my name<br>You'd say baby what's wrong ? <br>Oh ? here I am baby I'm coming back for more<br>I'm like a wave that's got to roll into the shore<br>Yes and if my love's in vain how come my love is so strong ? <br><br>Now you and me go parallel together and apart<br>And you keep your perfect distance and it's tearing at my heart<br>Did you never feel the distance<br>You never tried to cross no line<br>Now it's another dirty river and another dirty scar<br>And I don't know who's kissing you and I don't know where you are<br>So far from home don't you thing of me sometime<br><br>Sky is crying see the streets are full of tears<br>Rain coming down to wash away my fears<br>And all this writing on the wall<br>Oh I can read between the lines
