[Verse] Rain taps soft on the stone-cold hill Whispers to the heather Quiet and still The sky wears gray like an old wool coat A sigh in the breeze A wandering note [Chorus] Oh the rain Oh the rain It falls again Kisses the earth Then fades like a friend Oh the rain Oh the rain It hums its tune Dancing with shadows under the moon [Verse 2] Fields drink deep from the silver stream Rivers awake from their sleeping dream The wind carries tales of a far-off shore Each droplet a story Each drop a door [Prechorus] It whispers It lingers It laughs It weeps The rain knows the secrets the mountain keeps [Chorus] Oh the rain Oh the rain It falls again Kisses the earth Then fades like a friend Oh the rain Oh the rain It hums its tune Dancing with shadows under the moon [Bridge] Drum of the rain on the thatched roof above A song of longing A song of love It falls for the lost It falls for the free It falls for the wanderer It falls for me
