Sweet Rain

I remember when every other day was bad
You were my brother, so tall was all you had
Well, Sireno was dead but we had you instead
Now I remember our precious petting zoo
Our delicate high school and all the things we said
we'd do
They all fall like, Sweet Rain
Wet my memory, Sweet Rain
Come on down on me
It wasn't hard to look ahead
You wanted to be me instead
I wanted to be you instead but
I fell and you fell back
What is wrong with me, well what is wrong with you,
Jack?
Everybody knew she was coming, Everybody knew she was
coming, everybody knew she was . . ., everybody knew
she was.
Yeah, Sweet rain, wet my memory, sweet rain, come on
down, you got to come on down on me
The big screen got in between, what it was and what
we've seen
How have you been? What have you been? I think about
Now and again, I think about you now and again, I think
about you every single day
Well, shit I'm thinking about you right now
And I wish that you knew all the things you do.
And how I love you, like a brother loves a brother,
like a mother loves her friend.
You tried to save my life. You tried to save my life.
And I thank you.
But I have to do what I have to do, to get back here
right next to you and I had to steal what I had to
steal to get myself back to being real.
I had to grow in ways that I didn't want to know.
And you tried to save my life, you tried to save my
life.
I thank you brother.
Cause now I know so much more than I ever knew before I
fell, and fell and fell and you picked me up just like
before.
You saved my life. You keep saving my life. You keep
saving my life. You keep saving my life. You are like
