Erasure
Rain (Live) [Manchester, Academy 1, UK - 1997/12/13]
[Intro: Andy Bell]
This is a poet
These are playing cards
I'm not gonna do any tricks tonight, I promise
We'd like you to choose this chanson
Well, it looks we're getting cowboy
Finished some dome before we even started tonight
This song is called Rain
[Verse 1: Andy Bell]
What is there to do? Only rain
Falling down from the sky
Only me and you fair and plain
Nothing lost and nothing gained
[Pre-Chorus 1: Andy Bell, Samantha Smith, Jordan Bailey & John Gibbons]
Only the love nothin more nothing
Less comes between us
Tempretures rising my passion
Is burning inside
[Chorus: Andy Bell, Samantha Smith, Jordan Bailey & John Gibbons]
My world in lines saving all as one
A love that no-one can deny
My one true light same for everyone
A love that no-one can deny
Only rain
[Verse 2: Andy Bell, (Samantha Smith, Jordan Bailey & John Gibbons)]
I once settled for less, but no regrets
Seeing myself in your own reflection
(Seeing myself in your own reflection)
Something in your eyes, that tells me why
I'm a fool for your own affection
(I'm a fool for your own affection)
[Pre-Chorus 1: Andy Bell, Samantha Smith, Jordan Bailey & John Gibbons]
Only the love nothin more nothing
Less comes between us
Tempretures rising my passion
Is burning inside
[Chorus: Andy Bell, Samantha Smith, Jordan Bailey & John Gibbons]
My world in lines saving all as one
A love that no-one can deny
(Only rain) My one true light same for everyone (I want you, I want you, I want you)
A love we dare you to defy
Only rain
[Bridge: Samantha Smith, Jordan Bailey & John Gibbons]
You are my, my one true, my world in light
You are my, my one true, my world in light
[Chorus: Andy Bell, Samantha Smith, Jordan Bailey & John Gibbons]
My world in lines saving all as one (I want you, I want you, I want you)
The love which no-one can deny
(Only rain) My one true light same for everyone (I want you, I want you, I want you)
A love we dare you to defy
(Only)
[Outro: Andy Bell, Samantha Smith, Jordan Bailey & John Gibbons]
My world in lines saving all as one (I want you, I want you, I want you)
The love which no-one can deny
(Only rain)
