Waiting On Rain Lyrics

There's a holy cloud rolling through the city
Yeah, threatenin' to rain
Said I've come to rest the iron
Of your locomotive trainThe rails you're riding on, my friend
Will take you nowhere fast
And when you arrive at nowhere
With your future turned to pastYou'll realize, the track must end
'Fore you reach the western shore
Then you'll wish the rails would stop you
You wish the rails would stop you there beforeWaiting on rain
'Cause I've been down
Waiting on rain
Rain gonna come
Rain on me, nowThey say that turnin' trains to rust
Is such an ugly thing to do
But I love myself no more than I love youIf you can take these iron wheels
And turn them into rust
You'll know the God who sent us

Is a God that you can trustAnd you'll realize, the track extends
Beyond the western shore
And we'll ride the rails to freedom
Ride the rails to freedom through that stormWaiting on rain
'Cause I've been down
Waiting on rain
Rain gonna come
Rain on me, nowRain gonna come
Rain on me, now
It's gonna come
Rain on me, now
