main lyrics

I drink you up
for every drop of you is sacred
every drop I drink you up
you fill my cup
the way you laugh, eyes of a child
lean on me you fill me up

You make me love
so unconditionally generous
to me, you give me love
and break my heart
slip you fall, I pick you up
and dust you off, you break my heart

[CHORUS]
Rain, rain, rain down on me
again and again, rain down on me


Take all you want
what is mine is yours, no better use
is there for what I've got
take all you want
and only hope can I you won't deny
your love for me, my love

No, don't cry if it's too high
I lift you up, we make it make it
when I was so, so tired
you come along to wake me, wake me
time and time again and again
with a smile you save me, child
oh, oh, oh

[CHORUS]

Look, we play our cards
and I question by the grace of what
we play our cards at all
come fill me up
fill me, love, when I'm empty
when I'm all dried up

No, don't cry if it's too high
I lift you up, we make it, make it up
I was so so tired
you come along to wake me, wake me
time and time again and again
with a smile you save me, child
oh, oh, oh

[CHORUS]

alternate lyrics

come fill me up
oh fill me now cause i'm tired
i feel emptied out
my voice cries out
oh and i only hope that your the one
my words will land upon
i play my cards
oh and it's by the grace of what
that i play my cards at all
come fill me up
oh fill me now cause i'm tired
i feel emptied out

rain rain
rain down on me
again and again
rain down on me

oh i believe i see it now
oh i see you standing there i can only swear
like angels you came down
to wake me up
oh wake me now from my dreamless sleep
come on wake me up

oh i got a way
you got to lay
because you make you make it
you and if let's hope i can stay
to take you won't to know why though
you are the one only you
you alone can save yourself
yabba

rain rain
rain down on me
again and again
rain down on me

i believe i seen this how
oh without the darkness where's the light
without a here without the love
i see it now
oh i dreamed the devil and the Lord
been working it all along

i said i don't know got to give
time to live
you know it i take it take it
wipe your fingers down to the bib
you know you waste your while cause
you are one
no that's a fib
you got to know to save yourself
yabba

rain rain
rain down on me
again and again
rain down on me

rain rain
rain down on me
