Rain

(Larry Gatlin)



Rain falling always falling rain hurting never ending

Tear come the tears of sorrow fear of today tomorrow

Cry when there's no use crying goodbye there's no use trying

It all runs together when your loved ones are gone

And your head spins in circles.



And you're lyin' with your face down in the rain

Salvation Army band playin' their all night stand

Rain pouring from the sky blind people passing by

No one will help 'em now no one will even try.



This is his time at last his life is fading fast

His fate was fled away he tries but cannot pray

This is the way we live we take and never give

Someone could've helped him but no one would try

'Cause his pride wouldn't let them and now he's gonna die.



There in the rain shall we gather at the river?...
