Comin' Down in the Rain Lyrics


Flipped into the wind
Like the ashes of her cigarette
He got scattered thrown on the breeze
As he tried to forget
He lost all his heat
And his heart never will be the same
He got lighter than air
But he'll only come down in the rain
Strung out and hung out to dry
Laughin' under the line
It's not such a dignified place
But he really don't mind
He says with his feet on the ground
He'd have nothin' to say
Claims he likes it up there
And he'll only come down in the rainComin' down in the rain
Washin' outta the sky
Loaded down with the pain

There just ain't no way to flyYou can read him as clear
As the wall where he once wrote his name
It was right next to hers
But it'll only come down in the rainBurnin' himself out on a limb
Like a leaf in the fall
He blazed for awhile
Now he's feelin' all dried up and small
The colors all gone
Disappeared, near as quick as it came
He says he can't stay up
But, he'll only come down in the rainComin' down in the rain
Washin' outta the sky
Loaded down with the pain
There just ain't no way to flyYou can read him as clear as the wall
Where he once wrote his name
It was right next to hers
But he'll only come down in the rain
