Lyrics

We walk the narrow path
Beneath the smoking skies
Sometimes you can barely tell the difference
Between darkness and light
Do you have faith in what we believe?
The truest test is when we can not
When we can not see

I hear pounding feet in the
In the streets below and the
And the women crying and the
And the children know that there
That there's something wrong
And it's hard to believe that love will prevail

It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
Your tears won't fall forever

When I'm lonely
I lie awake at night
And I wish you were here
I miss you
Can you tell me, is there something more to believe in?
Or is this all there is?

And the pounding feet in the
In the streets below and the
And the window breaks and
And a woman falls, there's
There's something wrong, it's
It's so hard to believe that love will prevail

It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
Your tears won't fall
Your tears won't fall
Your tears won't fall
Forever

Last night I had a dream
You came into my room
You took me into your arms
Whispering and kissing me
And telling me to still believe
But then the emptiness of a burning sea against which we see our darkest of sadness

Until I felt safe and warm
I fell asleep in your arms
When I awoke I cried again
For you were gone
Can you hear me?

It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
Your tears won't fall forever
It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
Your tears won't fall
Your tears won't fall
Your tears won't fall
Forever
