This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
(j. spinks)
The rhythm of the rain
Breaks the silence
Beats against my window
As the moment slips away
And I just can't explain
In your absence there is nothing
I try in vain - but I can't kiss the rain
And a miracle can stay
In my mind forever more
It can take my blues away
But it can't stop the rain
And it won't stop me crying
As the rhythm starts again
Inside my head
The rhythm of your name
Undecided uninvited
Speaks to me just like you? re here again
And I just can't remain
Undecided unprovided
So in vain I tried to kiss the rain
And an orchestra can play
Any song I've ever heard
But they? ll never know my name
And they can't stop the rain
And they won't stop me crying
Oh the rhythm of the rain
Breaking in two
Unstained heart untamed dreams
Unchained love forever
The rhythm of the rain
Breaking the silence beating against my window
As the moment slips away
I just can't explain
In your absence there is nothing
I try in vain but I can't kiss the rain
The rhythm of the rain
Breaks the silence
Beats against my window
As the moment slips away
And I just can't explain
In your absence there is nothing
I try in vain - but I can't kiss the rain
And a miracle can stay
In my mind forever more
It can take my blues away
But it can't stop the rain
And it won't stop me crying
As the rhythm starts again
Inside my head
The rhythm of your name
Undecided uninvited
Speaks to me just like you? re here again
And I just can't remain
Undecided unprovided
So in vain I tried to kiss the rain
And an orchestra can play
Any song I've ever heard
But they? ll never know my name
And they can't stop the rain
And they won't stop me crying
Oh the rhythm of the rain
Breaking in two
Unstained heart untamed dreams
Unchained love forever
The rhythm of the rain
Breaking the silence beating against my window
As the moment slips away
I just can't explain
In your absence there is nothing
I try in vain but I can't kiss the rain
