(GUITAR & HARP INTRO)
|
|
There's a runaway
|
|
On a cold big city street
|
|
Trying her best to stay warm
|
|
On a subway grate
|
|
She kneels down for the heat
|
|
And prays for shelter from the storm
|
|
|
|
As people hurry by on their way home
|
|
Where they dream
|
|
Of a world without sadness and pain
|
|
They turn their heads
|
|
Not a one of them feels ashamed
|
|
What's another tear in the rain
|
|
|
|
There the old man stands
|
|
In a station for a western train
|
|
Going to where, he don't know
|
|
They call him when they can
|
|
But it still just ain't the same
|
|
He's learning to leave and let go
|
|
|
|
As people hurry by on their way home
|
|
Where they dream
|
|
of a word without sadness and pain
|
|
They turn their heads
|
|
Not a one of them feels ashamed
|
|
What's another tear in the rain
|
|
|
|
When I was a kid
|
|
It all seemed oh so simple and clear
|
|
We're supposed to take care of each other
|
|
While we're here
|
|
But we turn our heads
|
|
Not a one of us feels ashamed
|
|
What's another tear in the rain
|
|
What's another tear in the rain
|
|
