Alannah Myles - IRISH RAIN lyrics

I wore out my welcome as the days grew thin

In this Belfast town

It's like I've been waitin' 'til my life begins

And love comes around

I wander through the streets and I see them look away

The wind hits my bones as they whisper your name

I go out walking in the cold Irish rain

Verse II:

Fed up with the landlord comin' down my door

With his poison gaze

I've stared out his window and I've walked the floor

Of this sorry place

I'll take comfort in the cold until I find my faith again

Oh God know I've tried but I just can't fit in

I go out walking in the cold Irish rain

Bridge:

What I'd give to see the sun on your face

To lose myself, in a long embrace

How I'd love to hear the band start to play

As you turn me around, Oh I long for the day

Solo:

Verse III:

The last of the ramblin' boys has lost his way

In these broken times

They sold off your story and they stole your rage

With this heart of mine

They pulled you from your sleep and they covered up your name

Now on Sundays they pray to see you again

I go out walking in the cold Irish rain

I go out walking in the cold Irish rain

I go out walking in the cold Irish rain...

In the rain, in the rain.
