Every time it rains

(Billy Bob Thornton/JD Andrew)

It was pourin' when I've got here
It soaked into my skin
I turned my face toward the storm
Ready to begin
Clearin' clouds
To let the sun shine in

I could dodge a bullet
And I could get the dame
Ride off in the sunset
I could make a name
For myself
I could play the game

When you've climbed the mountain
And there's no place left to roam
There're no way to get back home

Every time it rains
Every time it rains
Every time it rains it seems
To remind me of a time
When I had dreams

The diner took the daytime
The parties took the night
Makin' friends who told me
It's hard, give up the fight
The mountaib's high
The dream is out of sight

I knew that I could make it
I knew the sky would clear
The boulevard would dry a spot
And my star would appear
Shining on
The footprints standing near

When you've reached the top
And the gold's rubbed off the chrome
There's no way to get back home

Every time it rains
Every time it rains
Every time it rains on me

Every time it rains
Every time it rains
Every time it rains on me

Every time it rains
Every time it rains
Every time it rains on me
It seems to remind me of a time
When dreams were free
