Was a late summer night
Sometime back in 2005
Wind in her hair
Dreams in her eyes
Heart told me tell her how you feel
Head said yeah but not tonight
Wait until tomorrow
When the seeds are sewn
And your dreams are blown
Into pieces she'll pick out from the sky
Coz this world ain't forever
Even angels pass on lullabies
Guess I'll sing 'em til I die
And I'll ride on my heart
Ain't no other road to take
Spend all my money
Til' the bank says take a break
Meant to get there early
Ended up an hour late
Got talking to a friend in need
Told me he was empty
Couldn't face another day
Raised his hands to Jesus
But the nuns sent him away
Said I'm gonna stick around
I'll see ya sometime soon down the way
The Days When The Rains Came
Never did understand
The men who fight for more
Pockets full of diamonds
Still they send their kids to war
Sink their ships to sunken depths
Shout orders from the shore
Oh it's a shame
How they never take the blame
Still I got you
And you got me
Let's buy a little land
Plant a garden by the sea
It's a crazy old world
We all need ourselves a reason to be free
That's what you are to me
So if you're crying or shaking
Your heart is breaking
Open your eyes to the sun
Days like these it's a little hard to breathe
When no matter what you do
You're always on the run
And in my mind I think about the time
Me and the boys all singing through the night
Wild eyed dreams
Praying that our lives might change
The Days When The Rains Came
Rains came
Oh our lives might change
The Days When The Rains Came
