From the recording Dig
Lyrics
Waiting for the rain
Waiting for the heartaches
Nothing will wash away
And no one can replace
A beautiful day gone by
A day where nothing matters
Beneath the earth and sky
We’re leaving torn and tattered
Waiting for the rain
Waiting for the cloudburst
Won’t be no pretty day
Won’t be no April showers
You know there’s something going on (won’t be long)
Won’t be no time for sorrow
You know that something’s gone wrong (won’t be long)
Won’t be no time tomorrow
You’re too big for that now,
Much too big for that trouble
And you won’t see the clouds
Till it’s all coming down
Take’s a certain kind of fool
to see the end and look the other way
Take’s a certain kind of fool
to wash his hands and let it slip away
Waiting for the rain
Look at all the faces
Nobody can explain
And no one can face it
Now you can’t stop the rain (won’t be long)
Nothing will make it better
Won’t be no lovely day (won’t be long)
This rain could last forever
You’re too big for that now,
Much too big for the trouble
You won’t see the clouds
Till it’s all coming down
Take’s a certain kind of fool
to see the end and look the other way
Take’s a certain kind of fool
to wash his hands and let it slip away.
You’re sitting in the backseat of a runaway car
You don’t know where you’ve been
Thinking you’re clever got us too far
And we’ll never get us back again
But you’re too big for that now (won’t be long)
Much too big for that trouble (there’s something going on)
You won’t see the clouds
Till it’s all coming down
Take’s a certain kind of fool
to see the end and look the other way
Take’s a certain kind of fool
to wash his hands and let it slip away
Take’s a certain kind of fool to walk away
Take’s a certain kind of fool to walk away
You know that’s something going on
There’s something gone wrong
There’s something going on
There’s something gone wrong
