Handful Of Rain Lyrics - Savatage

The night is growing dark 

From somewhere deep within 

It shelters like an ark 

That always takes you in 

And the mind goes numb 

Until it's feeling no pain 

And the soul cries out 

For a handful of rain 

Wash your women 

In your whiskey 

When your future's 

In the past 

And you're staring 

Up at heaven 

From the bottom 

Of a glass 

And you need some insulation 

From the years you've had and lost 

And you feel the perspiration 

As you're adding up the cost

And the night rolls on 

Like a slow moving train 

And the soul cries out 

There's a land beyond the living 

There's a land beyond the dead 

If it's true that God's forgiving 

Of the lives that we had led 

In the distance there's a thunder 

And the air is thick and warm 

And the patrons watch with wonder 

The approaching of the storm 

And the night rolls on 

Like a slow moving train 

And the soul cries out 

For a handful of rain

There's an old man in the corner 

And he's smoking all the time 

And the smoke is drifting upward and it's 

Twisting in my 

Twisting in my mind 

My mind 

The whiskey's getting deeper 

And I use it like a moat 

There's a blues man in the distance and he's 

Lost inside his note 

His note 

His note 

The night is growing dark 

From somewhere deep within 

It shelters like an ark 

That always takes you in 

And the night rolls on 

Like a slow moving train 

And the soul cries out 

For a handful of rain
