Pray for Rain

Listen to the rain come down on the roof
 Someone needs a miracle
 And I'm the livin' proof
 Drink
 Light a cigarette
 And let me count the ways
 I can hear a whisper
 In a haunted house these days
 She won't set me free
 She won't let me go
 She won't leave my soul alone
 She just leads me to the river
 As my heart goes down in flames
 Till she comes back to me
 I'll have to pray for rain
 Wrap yourself around me
 Only you can pull me through
 Through this desert that I call my heart
 I'll pray for rain to you
 To you
 To you
 I can see the firelight reflected on her skin
 She was smooth as alabaster
 With a taste of salt and sin
 Slave to a servant
 A prisoner to a kiss
 Addicted to temptation
 And we did not resist
 Now I can't get free
 She won't let go
 She won't leave my soul alone
 She¹ll just lead me to the river
 As my heart goes down in flames
 Till she comes back to me
 I'll have to pray for rain
 Wrap yourself around me
 Only you can pull me through
 Through this desert that I call my heart
 I'll pray for rain to you
 Now I'm a stranger to myself
 Now my life is not my own
 She won't leave my soul alone
 She¹ll just lead me to the river
 As my heart goes down in flames
 Till she comes back to me
 I'll have to pray for rain
 Wrap yourself around me
 Only you can pull me through
 Through this desert that I call my heart
 I'll pray for rain to you
 (lead me to the river)
 Lead me to the river
 I'll pray for rain
 (lead me to the river)
 (pray for rain)
 She comes back to me again
 (lead me to the river)
 Lead me down
 Take me down
 (lead me to the river)
 (pray for rain)
 Pray for rain
 (lead me to the river)
 (lead me to the river)
 (lead me to the river)
 (pray for rain)
 (lead me to the river)
 (lead me to the river)
 (lead me to the river)
 (pray for rain)
 (lead me to the river)
