Dry the Rain Lyrics
Lying in bed in the sunlight
Choking on the vitamin tablet
The doctor gave in the hope of saving me
In the hope of saving me
A junk yard fool with eyes of gloom
I asked him time again
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain, the rain
The rain, the rain, the rain now
By the ironing board
Spray on dust is the greatest thing
Sure is the greatest thing
Since the last, since the last
A junk yard fool with eyes of gloom
I asked him time again
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain, the rain
The rain, the rain, the rain now
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain
The rain, the rain, the rain now
Say it out loud, it'll be okay
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light
Say it out loud, it'll be okay
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light
I need love
Say it out loud, it'll be okay
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light
Say it out loud, it'll be okay
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light
I need love
This is the PERFECT song to listen TO when you're stoned. Unbelievable.
@helenlynn182 agreed.
@helenlynn182 agreed.
this is the definition of my life.
this is a great song. they played it in the movie "high fidelity".
wow, i just read "high fidelity".. the bit at the beginning about going on the swings.. story of my life..
anyway, this song is on my BEST SONGS EVER list, so i thought i should comment. basically, it's this guy's voice.. it makes me want to lie down and listen to this song over and over and over. which i do. quite often.
great slide guitar, too. :)
This is possibly the best song I have ever heard. The first lines and then this part:
If there's something inside that you wanna say Say it out loud it'll be ok I will be your light I will be alright
god, they make me melt.
I think this is about an addict with behavioral health issues who kicks it by giving their life to another person.
The vitamin tablet is an antidepressant or something of the sort. The “junkyard fool” can score for them or perhaps a metaphor for the drug itself.
“I asked him time again, take me in and dry the rain.” I need a fix. I need to be ok.
When the melodica or trumpet or whatever it is kicks in, this is their psyche or mood. They’ve decided to try and help another with the same addiction and/or affliction.
“If there’s something inside that you wanna say, say it out loud it’ll be ok. I will be your light…”
my one friend believes that at some points during the "if there's something inside" part, the singer switches between "i will be yr light" and "i will be alright." i don't know.
yes, actually it sounds like that. the first time is "i will be alright", he switches off and on during the second and third time, and the last time is "I will be alright".
oh ok i thought he was saying i will be alright for most of it, the lyrics kind of scared me at first, thanks for the tip, great song though
im scottish and so are the beta band and it sounds just like a scottish 'rugby' song - the guys voice just rocks and the continuity brings out the best in Scottish homebred music.
