The Sky Above The Rain Lyrics

She loves him
But she doesn't want him
She used to burn for him
But now that's changed
She knows he knows
And she says it isn't so
What else can she say?
But when he reaches out
She turns away

When he talks about it
She says he's cruel
So he apologizes
Counts his blessings
What else can he do?
She used to gaze at him
Reach out with her toes to touch him
She still loves him
But she doesn't want him

And in her eyes he's so much less
Than the light heart she met
The laughing boy she used to know

He feels ugly now
And the ugliness creeps around inside him
Until he really is
The animal paws at him, gnaws at him
The Silver-Back wins over him

And in his pain, and bitter shame, he resents her
The one who loves him

They said they'd never lie
They'd learned their lessons from the last times
They said they could talk
They could always talk Deceit stirs in them now
For reasons good as well as bad

But he wants so much
Not to live another lie
To be free and high again

Trying to see the blue sky above the rain
Trying to see the blue sky above the rain
Remembering the blue sky above the pouring rain
He's trying to see the blue sky above the rain

He's flown there and he's seen it
Been up there lighter than air floating in the miracle
But he can't fly until she wants him
He can't burn until she sparks him
He's dressed in lead from toe to head

Trying to see the blue sky above the rain
Remembering the blue sky above the rain

Maybe they'll talk
Soul to soul, head to head, heart to heart, eye to eye
Rise up to that blue space above the clouds
Where troubles die
And tears dry
Heading west and climbing
In that place the sun never stops shining

The rain's below us
