Common Children

Strange Rain

Common Children


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
