Tears and Rain (2024 remaster) Songtext
von 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 (I wish you were here)
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

Ooh...
Tears and rain
Ooh...
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
