In an interview with Metal Chest of Wonders Andrea Ferro said about this song:
A song about the devastating feeling of losing a loved one. The cold, the rain and the grey seemed to be a perfect way to reflect the passage of life and nature. And this song was also written to be dedicated to Claudio...
[Verse]
Sometimes, the sun shines cold
The road is lonely as I walk alone
In the sky the clouds are racing fast
It's becoming so cold outside
[Pre-Chorus]
Time has come, time has come
And the clouds gather above me...
And the clouds gather above me...
[Chorus]
As I stand in the rain of this cold day
Tears are the words when I cannot confess the pain
Time will heal
But I don't want to feel...
[Verse]
Sometimes, it's hard to let go
It's hard to move along the scars of life...
Memories are blooming in the gloom
As I'm feeling so cold inside
[Pre-Chorus]
Time has come, time has come...
And the clouds gather above me...
And the clouds gather above me...
[Chorus]
As I stand in the rain of this cold day
Tears are the words when I cannot confess the pain
Time will heal
But I don't want to feel
[Bridge]
Cry in the rain...
Release the pain...
Cry in the rain...
Release the pain...
(Mm, m-mm, oh-oh oh, oh-oh)
(Mm-mmm m-mmm, m-mmm)
(Oh o-oh, m-mmm-mm)
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
So cry now, cry now and let it go
Cry now, cry now and let it go
Cry now, cry now and let it go
Cry now, cry now
Cry...
O-oh o-oh-oh...
Whoa-oh-oh...
Whoa-ah-oh...
Cry...
O-oh o-oh-oh...
Oh...
