Black Rain Lyrics

Jack Savoretti

A dirty rain is falling at my feet
People walk pretending not to see
And I don’t know why everybody wants what they don’t need

It’s everybody’s world
One mans grave
And heaven only knows
What’s hidden up his sleeve
Using diamonds, clubs and spaded
He’ll win your hearts
And build a house of cards
And build a house of cards

‘Til we all fall down
And we all fall down
Watch us all fall down
Like black rain

Buildings getting tall
Watch them scrape the sky
Can’t see the stars at all through the city lights
When the fuel runs low
Who cares if we’re getting high
It’s not the things you know
But the things that you deny

Make us all fall down
And we all fall down
Watch us all fall down
Like black rain
Like black rain

Dirty rain is falling at my feet
People walk pretending not to see
And I don’t know why everybody wants what they don’t need

Will we all fall down
Til we all fall down
Watch the oil fall down
Like black rain
Like black rain

[It’s not always gonna rain]
[It’s not always gonna rain]
[It’s not always gonna rain]
