Tears and Rain - James Blunt

How I wish I could surrender my soul

Shed the clothes that become my skin

See the liar that burns within my needing

How I wish I’d chosen darkness from cold

How I wish I had screamed out loud

Instead I’ve found no meaning

I guess it’s time I run far, far away

Find comfort in pain

All pleasure’s the same: it just keeps me from trouble

Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray

I’ve heard what they say, but I’m not here for trouble

It’s more than just words: it’s just tears and rain

How I wish I could walk through the doors of my mind

(Hold memory close at hand)

Hold memory close at hand

Help me understand the years

How I wish I could choose between Heaven and Hell

How I wish I would save my soul

I’m so cold from fear

I guess it’s time I run far, far away

Find comfort in pain

All pleasure’s the same: it just keeps me from trouble

Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray

I’ve heard what they say, but I’m not here for trouble

Far, far away

Find comfort in pain

All pleasure’s the same: it just keeps me from trouble

It’s more than just words: it’s just tears and rain

Tears and Rain

Tears and Rain

Far, far away;

find comfort in pain

All pleasure’s the same: it just keeps me from trouble

It’s more than just words: it’s just tears and rain
