i went to the sun it was too hot
|
i went to the moon it was too cold
|
went to the mountain it was too young
|
went to the ocean it was too old
|
|
is it the same rain that falls on a holy man
|
is it the same rain that falls on a liar's hand
|
is it the same rain that falls on me
|
|
i knew a man a refugee survival was his art
|
all that he held valuable he carried in his heart
|
|
is it the same rain that falls on the mountain's face
|
is it the same rain that falls on the prison gate
|
is it the same rain that falls on me
|
|
all the money in the world all the power it can buy
|
will not take your voice away
|
cannot own what you hold inside
|
|
is it the same rain that falls on a poor man's room
|
is it the same rain that falls on a rich man's tomb
|
is it the same rain that falls on me
|
|
is it the same rain that falls on the raging see
|
is it the same rain that falls on the hanging tree
|
is it the same rain that falls on me
|

Same Rain
