He used to stand on a hill to get close to the sun
And his eyes got burned cause he stared at the sun
And the walls came down on the whole damn town
Oh the smoke was seen on the old oak trees

When the town was dust he saw a flower grow
All the people's sign there would be something new
Oh he was told this tale but he did not see
That his eyes were a gift to make people free

[Chorus]
Save this town for a rainy day
Save this town for a rainy day

And it’s two long days since the old town fell
He returns to the hill to get close to the sun
And two more days he waits in the rain
He’s drenched to his bones and his clothes are stained

Oh when the day breaks on his tired head
And brings the sun and slows the rain
The people stared as he starts to glow
And he joins the sun and its rainbow

[Chorus]
Save this town for a rainy day
Save this town for a rainy day
