Long have I wandered. so far from home. Come to a place I. have never known. Gone too deep underground. Gone too far. better turn around. I?ve been running away. I?ve been. running away away. (chorus). Don?t you know. I need the rain to hide my tears. To cover me. wash me clear. Don?t you know. I need the rain. to hide my tears. I?m in my cloud. I?m not here. No killing sun. to know where I go. No no killing sun. to know where I go. Stop the world. make it wait. Don?t you burn my eyes. in the fires of day. Let me stay dark and safe. And this crazy rain is. my last escape. I?ve been running away. I?ve been. running away away (chorus)
