Gutters Full Of Rain Lyrics - Sell Sell Sell - David Gray

A gutter full of rain 

An empty picture frame 

A house out at the edges of the city 

Never noticing the war 

'Till it's right there at your door 

And suddenly your hands are bloody 

I was seeking to possess 

Now another girl's caress 

Is on your flesh 

The bitterness is tasted 

There's nobody in your chair 

No hand to touch my hair 

The sun even the air seems wasted 

Let it go now, let it all slip away 

And we'll start it all over again 

Me, like a million others before 

Trying to make sense of the rain

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Were these twenty years a dream 

Was it ever as it seemed 

Get to wonder if it really existed 

'Cause the thief who stole my life 

Has taken, too, my faith 

I can see now how the world gets twisted 

Let it go now, let it all slip away 

And we'll start it all over again 

Me, like a million others before 

Trying to make sense of the rain 

In spite of all the shame 

Some times I hear your name 

I think of us when we were younger 

Then I'm shutting out the noise 

And I'm trying to hear the voice 

That used to tell me love was stronger 

Photos 

Light another cigarette 

But the one I got's still lit 

I can't seem to keep my fingers steady 

Never noticing the war 

'Till it's right there at your door 

And suddenly your hands are bloody
