[Verse 1]
We walked the narrow path
Beneath the smoking skies
Sometimes barely tell the difference
Between darkness and light, oh
Do we have faith (Do we have faith)
In what we believe? (In what we believe?)
The truest test
Is when we cannot
Is when we cannot see, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear the pounding feet in
In the streets below, and the
And the women crying
And the children know that
There's something wrong and
It's hard to believe that love will prevail
[Chorus]
It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
Your tears won't fall forever
[Verse 2]
Oh, when I'm lonely I lie awake at night
And I wish you were here
I miss you
Can you tell me
Is there something more to believe in?
Or is this all there is?
[Pre-Chorus]
And the pounding feet in
In the streets below and
And the window breaks and
And a woman falls and
There's something wrong and
It's hard to believe that love will prevail
[Chorus]
It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
Your tears won't fall
Your tears won't fall
Your tears won't fall
Forever
[Bridge]
Last night I had a dream (Forever)
You came into my room
You took me into your arms (Forever)
Whispering and kissing me (Forever)
And telling me to still believe (Forever)
Within the emptiness of the burning cities
Against which we set our darkest selves (Forever)
Until I felt safe and warm
I fell asleep in your arms (Forever)
When I awoke I cried again (Forever)
For you were gone
Can you hear me?
[Chorus]
It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
Your tears won't fall forever
It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
Your tears won't fall
Your tears won't fall
Your tears won't fall
Forever
[Outro]
This next song is called "I Paddle My Canoe"
Written with Tim and David here on tour last fall
On a cold, rainy day in, I think, Boston
And um, I think I just woke up and went right to the radio station
So it's much lower than the songs I normally write
'Cause we improvised it
It Can’t Rain All the Time (Live) was written by Jane Siberry & Graeme Revell.
It Can’t Rain All the Time (Live) was produced by Jane Siberry.
