when you play
when you play your songs
will they take you away
like they made me feel home

will they keep you in trees
will they keep you in green
in the cold wet north
inescapable coast

will they keep you warm
will they keep you warm
will they keep you warm
who will keep you warm

it?s gonna rain all
it?s gonna rain all
it?s gonna rain all
winter long

in the capitol
of suicide by alcohol
of dying dreams and late phone calls
no-one?s there to watch you fall

it?s gonna rain all
it?s gonna rain all
it?s gonna rain all
winter long

it?s gonna rain all
it?s gonna rain all
it?s gonna rain all
winter long
