There's lights that line these halls That beckon us to stay A glimmer in the distance That gathers all the stray And when I need it most It breaks into a song That runs through all my veins And helps me to hold on
It was a long night We ran along into the spotlight You sang a song that made the children cry And all the people knew my name It was a bright light These lands combine into a great big mass We sang along to the very last Oh, the jury stole my fame And then we grabbed the sun And it shined into these eyes Believe me
Cover up, rain down We wept on the edge of this town It's all I want it's all we want tonight I feel it Cover up, rain down We wept on the edge of this town It's all I want it's all we want tonight
Oh, you look so alive Did you think that we'd cry tonight? Oh, did you think we'd cry? Oh, can you feel my heart? I think I feel it, too Did you think that we'd die tonight? Oh, did you think we'd die?
And then we grabbed the sun And it shined into these eyes Believe me
Cover up, rain down We wept on the edge of this town It's all I want it's all we want tonight I feel it Cover up, rain down We wept on the edge of this town It's all I want it's all we want tonight
Take my love, take it to the valley where the golden dove Flies it to the places where the silence screams Fills it with the noises of our cluttered dreams
Cover up, rain down We wept on the edge of this town It's all I want it's all we want tonight I feel it Cover up, rain down We wept on the edge of this town It's all I want it's all we want tonight
