I have given, I have given and got none Still I'm driven by something I can't explain It's not a cross, it is a choice I cannot help but hear his voice I only wish that I could listen without shame Let it rain Let it rain on me Let it rain, oh let it rain Let it rain on me I have been a witness to the perfect crime I wipe the grin off of my face to hide the blame It isn't worth the tears you cry To have a perfect alibi Now I'm beaten at the hands of my own game Let it rain Let it rain on me Let it rain, oh let it rain Let it rain on me It isn't easy to be kind (it isn't easy to be kind) With all these demons in my mind (with all these demons in my mind) I only hope one day I'll be free I do my best not to complain (I do my best not to complain) My face is dirty from the strain (my face is dirty from the strain) I only hope one day I'll come clean Rain Let it rain on me Let it rain, oh let it rain Let it rain on me Come take my hand We can walk to the light And without fear We can't see through the darkest night Rain Rain on me Let it rain, oh let it rain Let it rain on me Rain on me (rain) Rain on me Rain on me
