"Canadian Rain" lyrics

Just another way it never had to be that way
Most times, lovers are lost wondering why
I wish I had the money or the nerve left in me to blow 'em all away
Or leave my heart to the cold Canadian rain

Might've beat me yesterday, but they'll always find a way to hold me down
All the pieces fittin' and I'm gone and I'm farther along
All the world's a stage, every heart's a rage
Daily's or nightly
The pain in my heart and the cold Canadian rain

I don't see no smiling faces
No need to tell me it's a long way home
I really need ya, if I could only see you now
Reaching out like man, for what's left of another summer
Hold on, hold on

You still search for stars
Washed in the sand
Tried to warm me in the light of your eyes
Lost another summer on the beach at [?]
Hold me on

[?] American scene, and I was blinded by the light
You were a casual by day, you were probably right for those political fights
With every eye on ya, figures and parties, you blow 'em all away
The pain in my heart and the cold Canadian rain

I don't see no smiling faces
No need to tell me it's a long way home
I really need ya, if I could only see you now
Reaching out like man, for what's left of another summer
Hold on, hold on
I don't see no, don't see no smiling faces
No need to tell me it's a long way home
Sing it, really need ya, if I only see you now
Reaching out like man, for what's left of another summer
Hold on, hold on
