10,000 Maniacs — Rainy Day lyrics

Lyrics

On bended knee
I’ve looked through every window then
Touched the bottom
The night, a sleepless day instead
A day when love came
Came easy like what’s lost now found
Beneath a blinding
A blinding light that would surround
We were, we were, we were, we were without
In doubt
We were, we were, we were, we were about
Saving for a rainy day
I crashed through mirrors
I crashed through floors of laughter then
In a blind scene
No ties would moor us to this room
A day when love came
Came easy like what’s lost now found
And you would save me And I held you like you were my child
We were, we were, we were, we were without
In doubt
We were, we were, we were, we were about
Saving for a rainy day
Oh, if I were you, defiant you
Alone upon a troubled way
Oh, I would send my heart to you
To save it for a rainy day
We were, we were, we were, we were without
In doubt
We were, we were, we were, we were about
Saving for a rainy day
Oh, if I were you, defiant you
Alone upon a troubled way
Oh, I would send my heart to you
To save it for a rainy day
