Don't go drowning in your tears
Haven't you learnt anything
After all these years?
All God's little children
Are beautiful & pure
And you're as good
As all of them
Of this you can be sure
And we are just the same
Underneath the shadows
Of the sun
And we are just the same
No more no less than anyone
All the people
Of this lonely world
Have got some pain inside
Don't go thinking
You're the only one
Who ever broke right down
And cried
That's when the rain comes down
That's when the rain comes down
And this is for the broken dreamers
This is for vacant souls
This is for the hopeless losers
This is for the hopeless fools
And the burnt out
And the useless
And the lonely & the weak
And the lost & the degraded
& the too dumb to speak
And the day goes down
That's when the day
Goes down
Well don't you cry now - Don't go drowning in your tears Haven't you learnt anything After all these years? All God's little children Are beautiful & pure And you're as good As all of them Of this you can be sure And we are just the same Underneath the shadows Of the sun And we are just the same No more no less than anyone All the people Of this lonely world Have got some pain inside Don't go thinking You're the only one Who ever broke right down And cried That's when the rain comes down That's when the rain comes down And this is for the broken dreamers This is for vacant souls This is for the hopeless losers This is for the hopeless fools And the burnt out And the useless And the lonely & the weak And the lost & the degraded & the too dumb to speak And the day goes down That's when the day Goes down Explain Request ×
