And The Rain Crashed Down
from: This Is Me
Nine lives, we had 'em once, used 'em up too fast
We will always be together
Nine miles to Cooperstown, famous words come last
I will love you forever
And the rain crashed down on the roof
Punishing our transgression
Waiting on a confession
And the rain crashed down on the roof
Sayin', you didn't see it coming?
When you hit the ground running
Away, Away, Away, Away
Ten times if you told me once, you better watch your mouth
Some things are better left unspoken
Ten signs to be avoided, we got singled out
And only the silence was unbroken
CHORUS
Well the days were warm but the nights were long
And we were just getting by
Took me every minute just to find you
Well the days were warm but the nights were long
And we were just getting by
Do I need to remind you
Do I need to remind you
You say you won't forget, we'll mark it with a star
Honey this race ain't for the winning
But here's where to find me now if home is where you are
I'll be soaking wet and grinning
CHORUS
We will always be together
Nine miles to Cooperstown, famous words come last
I will love you forever
And the rain crashed down on the roof
Punishing our transgression
Waiting on a confession
And the rain crashed down on the roof
Sayin', you didn't see it coming?
When you hit the ground running
Away, Away, Away, Away
Ten times if you told me once, you better watch your mouth
Some things are better left unspoken
Ten signs to be avoided, we got singled out
And only the silence was unbroken
CHORUS
Well the days were warm but the nights were long
And we were just getting by
Took me every minute just to find you
Well the days were warm but the nights were long
And we were just getting by
Do I need to remind you
Do I need to remind you
You say you won't forget, we'll mark it with a star
Honey this race ain't for the winning
But here's where to find me now if home is where you are
I'll be soaking wet and grinning
CHORUS
