India Arie - Purify Me lyrics

With wounded eyes of sorrow

Children fall down while they play

We watch the rain roll down the window

To wash our innocence away

Do you think that we could find

The song inside our eyes

When wonder fades in time

Forgive us for this crime

Forever sleeping

The night has clothed us in a new day

A while to smile in mourning air

A chance to drink a drop of strange rain

And risk a game of truth or dare

I hope that we will find

The song inside our eyes

When wonder fades in time

Forgive us for this crime

Forever sleeping

Learn to laugh and to forgive

Throw your hands up to the sky (Strange rain)

Strange rain is falling where we live (To soothe and to erase)

To wash the stains out fom our teary eyes

I know that we can find

The song inside our eyes

When wonder fades in time

Forgive us for this crime

I wanna feel the rain (Strange rain)

Fall on my face (Strange rain)

Falling on my face (Strange rain)

I'm wide awake today

Forever dreaming
