Darker Day - The Builders and the Butchers

Heard the choir all gather and sing

Boys let it rain, let it rain, let it rain

I felt the earth, and the mud, and the clay

Oh, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain

Saw the lord when I had a dream

Hope it never rains never, rains, never rains

Saw the fire in the tops of the trees

Hope it never rains, never rains, never rains

It’s a long way home

A long way home

For a boy who’s gone and lost his way

Oh, the darker clouds

Are markin' a darker day

It’s a long way home

A long way home

For a boy who’s gone and lost his way

Oh, the darker clouds

Are markin' a darker day

Let this fire take this whole town away

Hope it never rains, never rains, never rains

When we raise up our hands all to pray

Oh, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain

Oh, will you take this fire away

Boys let it rain, let it rain

I was old enough to know what to say

Hope it never rains, never rains, never rains

It’s a long way home

A long way home

For a boy who’s gone and lost his way

Oh, the darker clouds

Are markin' a darker day

It’s a long way home

A long way home

For a boy who’s gone and lost his way

Oh, the darker clouds

Are markin' a darker day

And oh, we’ll fight again

We set the spark, start the light

And oh, we’ll fight again

We are the sparks, start the light

It’s a long way home

A long way home

For a boy who’s gone and lost his way

Oh, the darker clouds

Are markin' a darker day

It’s a long way home

A long way home

For a boy who’s gone and lost his way

Oh, the darker clouds

Are markin' a darker day

It’s a long way home

A long way home

For a boy who’s gone and lost his way

Oh, the darker clouds

Are markin' a darker day

It’s a long way home

A long way home

For a boy who’s gone and lost his way

Oh, the darker clouds

Are markin' a darker day
