Blue Rodeo › Lyrics › After the Rain

If I had my way
I would never go back
With my back to the wall
I just let myself fall

Watch the daytimes
Turn black
But now and again I find
You cross my mind

If I was a train
I would never slow down
With my head in the sky
And the world going by

Every nowhere town
As I write one more letter to you
I know I can't change
The things that I do

Oh, one day
When you discover
Just why I ran
Ran away from you lover

I know I'm to blame
I feel so ashamed
Call out your name
Oh, after the rain

Well, what do you
Want me to do
I've thrown away
Everything for you

Well, I've wasted my dreams
Each day it seems
I'm losing my way
Back to you

It's time for a change
Oh, what else can I do
I hear the clock ticking time
I better make up my mind

Is it me or is it you
Yeah, tonight
As I'm losing control
I will drink to the queen of my soul

Oh, one day
When you discover
Just why I ran, ran, ran away
Ran away from you lover

Well, I know I'm to blame
I feel so ashamed
Call out your name
After the rain, ooh after the rain

Oh, after the rain
Well, after the rain
After the rain, oh
Well, after the rain
Well, after the rain
