Came down from the mountain
Crossed the waters to a foreign shore
Sat down by the kitchen
Spying through the open door
Walked around the prison yard
Just trying to hide the past
There were families all around me now that left my mind aghast
And the rain came and washed away the watercolors of my dreams
And the same day, I walked away from the emptiness of what I'd seen
I couldn't share your sorrow
Or cleanse you with my tears
Your half-full guiding notions of love were insincere
And the rain came and washed away the watercolors of my dreams
And the same day, I walked away from the emptiness of what I'd seen
I guess it's not that easy
It really seems unreal
The thunder of my emotion
Lying cold as steel
And the rain came and washed away the watercolors of my dreams
And the same day, I walked away from the emptiness of what I'd seen
