Steady as the Rain

Dolly Parton · The Acoustic Collection: 1999-2002 [Sugar Hill] [2006]

(Dolly Parton)



Raindrops tumble to the ground making puddles all around

Drops of rain that look like tears fall on my window pane

Raindrops seem to harmonize with teardrops falling from my eyes

And my tears keep falling down as steady as the rain.



Steady as the rain they fall tears that just won't dry at all

Tears that cannot wash away the pain

Sometimes without knowing it, I touch my face and find it wet

And my tears keep falling down as steady as the rain



--- Instrumental ---



I can't face the fact that I am not important in your life

Once you lived for rollin' me and then your feelings changed

There's just no gettin' over you, I try so hard but it's no use

And my tears keep falling down as steady as the rain.



Raindrops just keep falling down beatin' out their rhythmic sounds

Dancin' as they play their sweet refrain

Memories of you cloud my mind, cloud my eyes and I start cryin'

And my tears keep falling down as steady as the rain.

As steady as the rain.



Steady as the rain they fall, tears that just won't dry at all

Tears that just won't wash away the pain

Memories of you cloud my mind, cloud my eyes and I start cryin'

And my tears keep falling down as steady as the rain.



As steady as the rain...
