I was walking to the river on a lonely day
I was waking to the river alone
And I couldn't remember the last time I came home
I took myself to the bridge, to the rocks on the ridge
It was sunny even thought it had rained
Someday I'll come home and I'll give these these places a name
It's like a secret never told, that the keeper doesn't know
It's like a word lost deep in a goodbye
It's like looking in the distance where the ground meets up with the sky
And you think to yourself, if I just keep walking
Maybe I can make it as well
(chorus:)
Rain down and wash away
The footsteps from these streets
I don't need them to remember where I've been
Rain down and wash away
The footsteps from these streets
Rain, rain down on me
I was walking downtown, there was dust on the ground
Making clouds as the world moved
There was man on the corner, he was singing himself a tune
There's an old warehouse and it's coming down
To remind us that the times will change
Soon, it's gonna be another place, with another name
And you think to yourself, if I just keep walking
Maybe I can change as well
Chorus
Rain, rain down on me
