Rains - Hurricane lyrics

rate me

I went for a walk the other day

I saw a man who didn't seem to have a

Reason to smile

After looking at his face I knew that

If I were him I couldn't turn my mouth up

I thought i'd give him some time so I sat down

Then he started to cry and said he is a

Old man with a young mans heart

You may be wondering how it gets this far

Open an ear boy let me tell you how it goes

Can you imagine

Everything you wanted

Everything you hoped for

Everything you needed

Can you imagine

It all just leaves you drowning

In pools of self destruction

I don't think you can

It was a rainy night twelve years ago

I had a nice wife, three kids and a good home

I was waiting impatiently the phone rang

The voice was calm and he said

I'm sorry sir your family's gone

They're at a train track, the engine stalled

Nothing at all could be done to save them

Sorry again about this call cause you're a

Young man with an old mans heart

You may be wondering how it gets this hard

Don't you fear son this will pass before you know

Can you imagine

Everything you wanted

Everything you hoped for

Everything you needed

Can you imagine

It all just leaves you drowning

In pools of self destruction

I don't think you can

Now son you've gotta keep in mind

All the tears

And the pain and the blame

And everything in between

And then you realize no one cares

And I said

Young man with an old mans heart

You may be wondering how it gets this hard

Don't you fear son this will pass before you know

Can you imagine

Everything you wanted

Everything you hoped for

Everything you needed

Can you imagine

It all just leaves you drowning

In pools of self destruction

I don't think you can
