Tear In The Rain Lyrics - Ozark Mountain Daredevils

(GUITAR & HARP INTRO) 

There's a runaway 

On a cold big city street 

Trying her best to stay warm 

On a subway grate 

She kneels down for the heat 

And prays for shelter from the storm 

As people hurry by on their way home 

Where they dream 

Of a world without sadness and pain 

They turn their heads 

Not a one of them feels ashamed 

What's another tear in the rain 

There the old man stands 

In a station for a western train 

Going to where, he don't know 

They call him when they can 

But it still just ain't the same 

He's learning to leave and let go 

As people hurry by on their way home 

Where they dream 

of a word without sadness and pain 

They turn their heads 

Not a one of them feels ashamed 

What's another tear in the rain
