Blue Rodeo Lyrics
"After the Rain"

Oh, if I had my way I would never go back
With my back to the wall, I just let myself fall
Watch the daytimes turn black
But now and again I find you cross my mind

Oh, if I was a train I would never slow down
My head in the sky and world goin' by every nowhere town
As I write one more letter to you
No, I can't change the things I do, ohhhh

One day when you discover just why I ran
ran away from you, lover
Well I know i'm to blame
I feel so ashamed
Called out your name
Ohhhh, after the rain

Well, what do you want me to do?
I've thrown away everything for you
Well, I've wasted my dreams
Each day it seems
Losing my way back to you

It's time for a change
What else could i do?
With the clock ticking time
Better make up my mind
Is it me or is it you?
Yeah tonight as i'm losing control
I will drink to the queen of my soul, ohhhh

One day when it is discovered just why i ran, ran away
ran away from you, lover
I know i'm to blame
I feel so ashamed
Called out your name
Ohhhh, after the rain...
