I was raised the northern way And my father had a northern name I did my crying out in the pouring rain And a season turned into another one I found a heart bright like the morning sun He touched my lips (so softly) with his fingertips But I kept the rain falling down on me all the time all the time I kept the rain falling down on me all the time all the time And some things in life won't ever change There's a smell of a rusty chain and of love disappearing like an aeroplane I've kept the rain falling down on me all the time all the time I've kept the rain falling down on me all the time all the time all the time
