Hand In Hand Lyrics - Making Movies - Dire Straits

The sky is crying the streets are full of tears 

Rain come down wash away my fears 

And all this writing on the wall 

Oh I can read between the lines 

Rain come down forgive this dirty town 

Rain come down and give this dirty town 

A drink of water a drink of wine 

If I been hard on you I never chose to be 

I never wanted no one else 

I tried my best to be somebody you'd be close to 

Hand in hand like lovers are supposed to 

As you'd sleep I'd think my heart will break in two 

I'd kiss your cheek I'd stop myself from waking you 

But in the dark you'd speak my name 

You'd say baby what's wrong? 

Oh here I am baby I'm coming back for more 

I'm like the wave that's got to roll into the shore 

Yes and if my love's in vain how come my love is so strong?

If I been hard on you I never chose to be 

I never wanted no one else 

I tried my best to be somebody you'd be close to 

Hand in hand like lovers are supposed to 

Supposed to be 

Now you and me go parallel together and apart 

And you keep your perfect distance and it's tearing at my heart 

Did you never feel the distance 

You never tried to cross no line 

'Cause it's another dirty river and another dirty scar 

And I don't know who's kissing you and I don't know where you are 

So far from home don't you think of me some time 

If I been hard on you I never chose to be 

I never wanted no one else 

I tried my best to be somebody you'd be close to 

Hand in hand like lovers are supposed to 

Photos 

If I been hard on you I never chose to be 

I never wanted no one else 

I tried my best to be somebody you'd be close to 

Hand in hand like lovers are supposed to 

Well sky is crying see the streets are full of tears 

Rain come down wash away my fears 

And all this writing on the wall 

Oh I can read between the lines
