We know
Our time has almost come
We're all overdue
Can there be a place to call our own?
Can there be a road that takes us home?
We tow the line (Tow the line)
We go along (We go along)
We tow the line
To you now
When it rains it pours
Like summer storms, the skies as gray as leaves
The rivers flood the banks and spill into the streets
But the people laughed and swore that they'd restore
The city piece by piece
And the clouds gave way as if to agree
When it rains it pours
The mystery unknown now unfolds
The life that we once owned
First bought, then sold
Like messengers of war, we've no control
To oceans unexplored
The ships sail through
We tow the line (We tow the line)
We go along (We go along)
We tow the line
To you now
When it rains it pours
Like summer storms, the skies as gray as leaves
The rivers flood the banks and spill into the streets
But the people laughed and swore they'd restore
The city piece by piece
And then the clouds gave way as if to agree
When it rains it pours
It pours
It pours
When it rains it pours
When they die we mourn
When it hit, we swore
Now we want not more
Like a saint reborn
Like a rose in a storm
Like a child unborn
A child unborn
It's the coin we're tossing into the well
It's misfortune we could not foretell
It's the dry spell
When it rains it pours
Like summer storms, the skies as gray as leaves
The rivers flood the banks and spill into the streets
But the people laughed and swore they would restore
The city piece by piece
And then the clouds gave way as if to agree
When it rains it pours
It pours
When it rains it pours
Even though we know, yeah We know Our time has almost come We're all overdue Can there be a place to call our own? Can there be a road that takes us home? We tow the line (Tow the line) We go along (We go along) We tow the line To you now When it rains it pours Like summer storms, the skies as gray as leaves The rivers flood the banks and spill into the streets But the people laughed and swore that they'd restore The city piece by piece And the clouds gave way as if to agree When it rains it pours The mystery unknown now unfolds The life that we once owned First bought, then sold Like messengers of war, we've no control To oceans unexplored The ships sail through We tow the line (We tow the line) We go along (We go along) We tow the line To you now When it rains it pours Like summer storms, the skies as gray as leaves The rivers flood the banks and spill into the streets But the people laughed and swore they'd restore The city piece by piece And then the clouds gave way as if to agree When it rains it pours It pours It pours When it rains it pours When they die we mourn When it hit, we swore Now we want not more Like a saint reborn Like a rose in a storm Like a child unborn A child unborn It's the coin we're tossing into the well It's misfortune we could not foretell It's the dry spell When it rains it pours Like summer storms, the skies as gray as leaves The rivers flood the banks and spill into the streets But the people laughed and swore they would restore The city piece by piece And then the clouds gave way as if to agree When it rains it pours It pours When it rains it pours Explain Request ×
