Counting Crows - Rain King (Mtv Live Version) lyrics
Your rating:
When I think of heaven Deliver me in a black-winged bird I think of flying Down into a sea of pens and feathers And all other instruments of faith and sex and God In the belly of a black-winged bird Don't try to feed me ‘Cause I've been here before and I deserve a little more I belong in the service of the Queen I belong anywhere but here She's been crying , I've been thinking And I am the Rain King Well I said Mama, mama, why am I so alone? I can't go outside ‘Cause I'm scared I might not make it home I'm alive, Yeah, look at me I'm sinking in If there's anyone at home at your place darlin' Hey come on, come on, come on Don't try to bleed me Look - I've been there before and I deserve a little more I belong in the service of the Queen I belong anywhere but in between She's been lying And I've been sinking And I am the Rain King Hey, I only want the same as anyone Mr Henderson is waiting for the sun Oh, it seems night endlessly begins and ends And ends and begins and ends and begins and ends and begins After all the dreaming I just wanna come home again... I said shine shine, look what I’ve found Your eyes are taking me out of bounds Shine shine look what I’ve found I said shine shine but look what I’ve found Your eyes taking me out of bounds Shine shine look what I’ve found… She said “when I think of heaven…” She said. She said, “when I think of heaven…” She said. She said “when I think of heaven…” She said. She said “I think of you, How come you don’t think of me too?” And I said “you know, it’s ‘Cause When I think of heaven…” Deliver me in a black-winged bird I think of dying Lay me down in a field of flame and heather Render up my body into the burning heart of God in the belly of a black-winged bird But don't try to bleed me 'Cause look I've been here before and I deserve a little more I belong in the service of the Queen I belong anywhere but in between She's been dying And I've been drinking and I am the Rain King. Well I said I am the rain king... Hey I said Goodnight Elisabeth, I’m so sorry now But I am the Rain King She said, “Well why don’t you just come in out of the rain?” “Hey! Whats up? This is ah, this is the last show of our American tour – and after this we’re gonna take a trip over to Europe for a month then we’re gonna take some time off and write some songs and… well we’ll see ya again when we get a new record”
