Manfred Mann’s Earth Band
Waiting for the Rain
Waiting for the rain
Waiting for the rain
You told me you were gonna make it
You told me you were gonna win
And I believed it was true
Yes I believed, I believed in you
There you go running through the alleys
Can't you see you're waiting for the rain
Look at you now wondering what you could be
You've had all the hard-luck you can handle
Can't you see you're slipping down again?
And I believed it was true
Yes I believed I believed in you
There you go you're running through the fire
Can't you see you're near the danger zone?
Look at you now hiding from the sunshine
You had all the hard-luck you can handle
Can't you see you're slipping down again?
You deserve the sunshine and not the rain
You deserve the rainbow you've had enough pain
I wanna see you win
And get it all
Hey I never see you fall
Can't you see
Waiting for the rain
Can't you see
Waiting for the rain
