I Wish It Would Rain - Daniel Lavoie

Silence is breakin' like rain pourin' down

I wanted to tell you but I didn’t know how

Truth is a dark cloud that won’t go away

It lives in the shadow of what we don’t say

Tonight is a long one, no candles for the dark

Wind blows down the hallway, no shelter for a heart

If I had wings, fly you away

Safe at the distance from this lonely place

Oh!

I know… I know you’re gonna cry tonight

So sorry baby

Wish I could make it right

Oh, I know, I know, I know

I know you’re gonna cry tonight

Thunder’s soundin' closer now

I wish it would rain

Wish the sky will open up

And rain

There is a mountain beyond these walls

Some climb in darkness or never climb at all

Some have to take it purely on faith

Someday I’ll see that light on your face

If I were an angel I’d drink up your tears

Swallow the sadness till it all disappears

If I were blind then I wouldn’t see

Sweet eyes believing trusting in me

And I know… I know you’re gonna cry tonight

I’m sorry baby

Wish I could make it right

Oh, I know, I know, I know

I know you’re gonna cry tonight

Thunder’s sounding closer now

Wish it would rain

Wish the sky would open up

And rain
