He used to be a singer in a rock and roll band
he would write the songs and i'd tremble at his hand but oh, la laa
he lost poetic ethic and his songs were pathetic, and he's a failure now
he used to be the life and soul of everyone around
you'd never catch him looking up and never see him down but oh, la laa
he couldn't raise a smile oh not for a while and he's a failure now
don't cry child, you've got so much more to live for
don't cry child, you've got something i would die for
and if it comes to the rain, just be glad you'll smile again
'cause so many don't
and so many go un-named
people push right past me shouting their exclaims
a preacher pushes me aside and asks to wash my sins i said no, la laa
if he made me in his image, then he's a failure too
and i used to need a couple people keep my head down
now i need a whole lot more to keep me on the ground but oh, la laa
i gave up something and i gave it up for nothing and i'm failure now
don't cry child, you've got so much more to live for
don't cry child, you've got something i would die for
and if it comes to the rain, just be glad you'll smile again
'cause so many don't.
and so many go un-named
He chased me through the rain,
"Honey, I'm going your way."
I don't think so.
You can chase me through the rain,
Scream my name, a childish game,
But I love to be young.
And honey I was never gonna change,
And honey you are never gonna change,
But you love, don't you love it that way.
Old stone,
Ten thousand years and you're still on your own.
Don't you love,
But you love it that way.
And if you swear that you're alright,
I'm not gonna try and change your mind.
Cause the same night I dream that I lose you I'll fall in love
And oh honey don't let me walk away from this
If I'm trying to fuck up my own life,
Then until I figure out why,
I think it's best you keep your distance
Lest I fall in love.
Old stone,
Ten thousands years and you're still on your own.
But you love,
Don't you love it that way.
He chased me through the rain.
"Honey I'm going your way."
I don't think so.
You can chase me through the rain,
Scream my name, a childish game,
But I love to be young
