Peter Gabriel - Red Rain lyrics

red rain is coming down

red rain

red rain is pouring down

pouring down all over me

I am standing up at the water's edge in my dream

I cannot make a single sound as you scream

it can't be that cold, the ground is still warm to touch

this place is so quiet, sensing that storm

red rain is coming down

red rain

red rain is pouring down

pouring down all over me

well I've seen them buried in a sheltered place in this town

they tell you that this rain can sting, and look down

there is no blood around see no sign of pain

hay ay ay no pain

seeing no red at all, see no rain

red rain is coming down

red rain

red rain is pouring down

pouring down all over me

red rain-

putting the pressure on much harder now

to return again and again

just let the red rain splash you

let the rain fall on your skin

I come to you defences down

with the trust of a child

red rain is coming down

red rain

red rain is pouring down

pouring down all over me

and I can't watch any more

no more denial

it's so hard to lay down in all of this

red rain is coming down

red rain is pouring down

red rain is coming down all over me

I see it

red rain is coming down

red rain is pouring down

red rain is coming down all over me

I'm bathing in it

red rain coming down

red rain is coming down

red rain is coming down all over me

I'm begging you

red rain coming down

red rain coming down

red rain coming down

red rain coming down

over me in the red red sea

over me

over me

red rain
