So Slow the Rain

I didn't mean to tear you apart
Or get so personal
I wish I'd never made a start
But I can't help myself
I can make the clouds descend
Upon us like a sheet
I can make excuses
But they sound so bittersweet

So slow the rain
That falls into my path
When all I ever wanted
Was to see you smile again
When all I ever wanted
Was a little bit of sunshine

I lost all conviction
And I tasted such defeat
Possession is nine tenths the law
But it's a monster that we feed
I'd do anything I can
To stir the hornets' nеst
I didn't really want to lose you
But I can't let it rеst

So slow the rain
That falls into my path
When all I ever wanted
Was to see you smile again
When all I ever wanted
Was a little bit of sunshine

I have fallen to my knees
Before on the dusty road
The pain in life is letting go
But it hurts you more to hold
Onto false illusions
When the cycle comes around
I lost all my senses
And I close my feelings down

So slow the rain
That falls into my path
When all I ever wanted
Was to see you smile again
When all I ever wanted
Was a little bit of sunshine
