What's holding me here in this time and place?
My mind's whirlwind won't cease and I'm scared of the rain.
The loose ends are dancing in the wind,
telling me I'm only now.

You're whispering songs into my heart of hearts, singing me to sleep.
And the world spins a million times again and again,
but I wake up just the same.
and I'm scared of the rain.

Which days dawning will push me over?
The sky cannot stand to watch over
a desolate soul forever,
and I know some day...

you'll let me float away to a brighter time, a brighter place
and let me see the sun again,
let it shine on my face,
'cause I'm scared of the rain.
