"Rainman" songtext
A dearth of moisture breaks the earth
To pieces I can't knit to one
(Oh, I can't knit to one)
I'm on my way across the land
To another place as dry as hell
Rumbling, disintegrating grain for grain
The people look to me for help
To ease their pain and nurse their wealth
Their miracle's a curse to me
'Cuz somehow something follows me
A dark cloud I can't seem to lose
Destined to give what they need take
The rain is falling on my head
The rain falls down
Water, water everywhere
'Far back as I can think
As long as I remember I've been swallowed by the drink
Drowning in solutions
Spirits dampened by the downpour
With the problems that I'm solving I'm dissolving
In the rain that's falling on my head
To pieces I can't knit to one
(Oh, I can't knit to one)
I'm on my way across the land
To another place as dry as hell
Rumbling, disintegrating grain for grain
The people look to me for help
To ease their pain and nurse their wealth
Their miracle's a curse to me
'Cuz somehow something follows me
A dark cloud I can't seem to lose
Destined to give what they need take
The rain is falling on my head
The rain falls down
Water, water everywhere
'Far back as I can think
As long as I remember I've been swallowed by the drink
Drowning in solutions
Spirits dampened by the downpour
With the problems that I'm solving I'm dissolving
In the rain that's falling on my head
