Björn Fabich - As the Rain Falls Down Lyrics

AS THE RAIN FALLS DOWN

The spirit of the past shines in every street
All the stones there under my feed
Telling stories about the people on their way around
As the rain falls down - as the rain falls down - on the City

The street reminds me of a book I´ve read
A hot summer day for the cemetery cat
It´s no good - I´m sentimental bound
As the rain falls down - as the rain falls down - on the City

And the Joker throws a pie - he likes to dance and sing
And the Scarecrow in the office - wears a diamond ring

Some people are vanished, some are dead
Some are still there, in my heart and my head
All these memories - still live on in this city
As the rain falls down - as the rain falls down - on the City

Colours, Smells, Noises, Sounds and Stories
People, Cars, Pictures and again: stories
Everything is still alive in this Big City
As the rain falls down - as the rain falls down - on the City

And the monkey wears a tie - and his brand new suit
And the Banker´s sitting - on a tree - trying looking cute

And when the raindrops fall on the trees
And the trees are shaking their leaves
And the sky is blue and grey out of sight
As the rain falls down - as the rain falls down - on the City

And now you´re waiting in vain
Waiting for the moment to stop the rain
And you´re looking out for a light
As the rain falls down - as the rain falls down - on the City
As the rain falls down - as the rain falls down - on the City
As the rain falls down - as the rain falls down - on the City
