I try hard to read her thoughts I read her lips but I still don’t know I try to breathe but the breathing's slow I miss the words and I let them flow And she stands in the velvet light As I try to reach her hand ‘Cos I’m scared when the night comes Especially when it rains
‘Cos the clouds are made of pain I don’t want to stay outside I need a shelter from the sky I need her hand to chase the pain I turn my back against the wall And put a pillow on my face I close my eyes until I bleed ‘Cos the clouds are made of pain
When the sky returns to blue I can say I feel secure 'Till it starts to rain again ‘Cos the clouds are made of pain
