Rain Fall

J. Cunningham
(From the album, The Song Club)

So you still haven’t found what your looking for
Between the never quite enough and the something more
There’s a crack big enough to fall into
And you could search down there your whole life through

There’s a hole in the heart like an open pit
And nothing you try ever seems to fit
Like a drought in the desert or a well run dry
You need a drenching rain to electrify

Rain, rain, rain fall
Rain, rain, rain fall

Falling down in sheets of rhyming rain
Let it drive you to your knees again

Now the heart of a man and the heart of the earth
Is dark and dry and made of dirt
There’s a broken line that needs repair
Three days in the ground then rise in the air

Rain, rain, rain fall
Rain, rain, rain fall
Rain, rain, rain fall
Rain, rain, rain fall
Fall, fall, fall
