It takes a world to turn the tide
It will come no matter how hard we try
And everything my friend
Is coming to an end
It will do you no good to hide
The rain keeps falling all over my head
(It won't stop, it ain't going to, until we're dead)
The flood is coming like the preacher man said
(I should have listened, but I didn't, I ignored him instead)
Jumping waters, with our lives on a thread
(The times are coming when we run, yes we run for bread)
The rain keeps falling all over my head
I wish somehow we could turn back time
Try to set it straight, gotta get it right
But as we speak, my friend
Can we agree to not pretend
We have put it all on the line
The rain keeps falling all over my head
(It won't stop, it ain't going to, until we're dead)
The flood is coming like the preacher man said
(I should have listened, but I didn't, I ignored him instead)
Jumping waters, with our lives on a thread
(The times are coming when we run, yes we run for bread)
The rain keeps falling all over my head
We are far from realizing
That when the temperature is rising
The true meaning of what I sing
Is the end of every being
We are far from realizing
That when the temperature is rising
The true meaning of what I sing
Is the end of every being
The rain keeps falling all over my head
