Now anger and hate, they never will die
They've got a life of their own
Can't let them invade, got to wash them away
Got to drown them in love
Got to drive them insane
Let it rain, let it rain with your love
Let it rain, let it rain with your love
Make it rain, pouring rain, with your love
Just let it rain
United we stand, all on the same side
We've got to see it that way
Let's join in together, stop looking away
Got to do it ourselves
Got no one else to blame
Let it rain...
True love is so rare, don't drive it away
It's all we have in the end
It's all up to you, just give it a try
You've got nothing to lose
And everything to gain
Let it rain...

She met him in a tavern at the edge of town
The friend of a friend, she had seen him around
Holidays are coming and it gets a bit lonely now
And he's talking 'bout love on his cellular banana,
taking all these women around the town
Talking 'bout love on his cellular banana
He lines them up just to knock them down
If it looks like pleasure but it feels like pain
If it looks like love but it feels like rain
run like the wind, baby, don't look back again (chorus)
Wake up, sleepy Susie
Don't you see what's really going on?
He's just trying to get at your heart and your soul
Latch on to a star and it can feel so sound
but if you lose your grip it's a long way down
Crash and burn, baby, when you hit the ground (chorus)

We are strangers holding hands
each of us just a grain of sand alone
But when we band together we can
make demands of our own
And all we want is peace on earth
All it takes is you and me
telling neighbors, telling friends,
we are rising up, one by one by one
You can turn a blind eye
from your castle way up high
But the sound you hear is drawing near
and it's growing louder every time (chorus)
Protect the homeland, that's fine,
but let us tell you where we draw the line
It's when you try to fuel your car
with the blood of someone's children (chorus)

Too pretty for Georgia, it's off to New York
you're gonna make it this time
By midnight on Monday, you're crying in bed
all alone in the city, in over your head
But it's okay, Daisy Mae, there's nothing left to say
Come back and fall in my arms
Oh, you've got to know when there's nowhere left to go
just come home
They eat you for breakfast and spit you out whole
and barely know that you're there
Now you're thrashing and flapping like a fish on a line
and not to see it coming you'd have to be blind
But it's okay, Daisy Mae...
And all this time you've been living on sweet dreams
and fantasies that were all in your mind
Reality is nothing like it seems
and oh this time, you've got nowhere to hide
We got your last postcard, it said you were fine
We read between every line
We'll take you back easy, no questions at all
Your bedroom's still ready, we knew you might call, but
But it's okay, Daisy Mae...(repeat)
La la la, la la la...

People live for the minute with treasures and toys
and base their world around material joys
But I don't need all the pleasures that money can buy
'cause they won't lend you peace of mind
And in a world where lies are spoken
people change and hearts are broken
When I need a reason not to feel so blue
it's nice to have friends like you
When you're caught in the rhythm of pleasure and pain
it gets to feeling like they feel the same
It's hard to say what happened when just yesterday
tomorrow seemed so far away
Now all the world is spinning around me
night has fallen and the blues have found me
When I need somebody just to see me through
it's nice to have friends like you
I see it over and over
People come and people go
and when you see who's left standing after all this time
they will always be there
We're a race of survivors
Give us time and we will find our way
It ain't easy to find a place that feels like home
but it's nice to be there
Got me no speed limit and everything's fine
I'm flying down a thousand roads in my sweet time
I've spent my last years fighting with old father time
and he ain't been no friend of mine
'Cause every year I'm feeling older
The days are shorter and the nights are colder
and when I need a shoulder just to lean on to
It's nice to have friends like you
Sure nice to have friends like you

She's searching for something
something between heaven and her heart
but I don't think she's found it
Searching for a way to make the magic
last a little longer
She's waiting for someone
hoping that forever will pass
Look at her waiting
Waiting for a smile that she can hide behind
when she's crying
And it's always all right till the morning
It's always all right till the morning comes
and takes her away from her sweet dreams
She's all on her own now
waking up and holding on tight
thinking he'll be there
She's counting on a dream that she can only
lose with the sunrise
She's searching for something
something between heaven and her heart
but I don't think she's found it
She's counting on a dream that she can only
lose with the sunrise
And it's always all right... (repeat)

When the chariot swings low
there is hope for tomorrow
And when the tide of love runs high
then peace shall reign supreme
We can never lead the way
if the road is divided
But when the world is united as one
then we can love again
And when the river is only low
then we will turn away
But when the river runs dry
our tears shall fill the well
Our tears shall fill the well
As every broken heart has known
it is darkest before the dawn
But when we wake up and open our eyes
then we can see the light
And when the sunrise is golden
it can feel just like paradise
But when the good times are better for all
then we can sleep at night
And when the river...
