After the rainAnd after the rain the temperature dropped
And covered in ice was my window top
I say goodbye, I wave my hand
As a thousand doves fly
Across the blackened nightAfter the rain we forget
We make sure we gain, then we leave it
'Cause we're a nation of forgetters
Oh, after the rain we pretend
It's easier to begin without looking back'Cause all at once air so thin
And there's nothing left to breathe inAfter the rain we forget
After the rain we forgetBehind the dream so rosy and red
A pile of things to forget
A voice of the past tiptoes in
A cracking, a ghost whisperingAfter the rain we forget
We make sure we gain, then we leave it
'Cause were a nation of forgettersAfter the rain we forget
After the rain we forgetPeople, where have you been?
Have you been hiding in your big houses?
And people, after the rain, will your life
Will it ever be the same?Oh, people, what will you do
When your luck, when it turns on you?
People, after the rain, will your life
Will it ever be the same?After the rain we forget
