James Blunt - Tears And Rain lyrics

How I wish I could surrender my soul
Shed the clothes that become my skin
See the liar that burns within my needing
How I wish I'd chosen darkness from cold
How I wish I had screamed out loud
Instead, I've found no meaning

I guess it's time I run
Far, far away
Find comfort in pain
All pleasure's the same
It just keeps me from trouble

Hides my true shape
Like Dorian Gray
I've heard what they say
But I'm not here for trouble

It's more than just words
It's just tears and rain

How I wish I could walk through
The doors of my mind
(Hold memory close at hand)
Hold memory close at hand
Help me understand the years
(How I wish you were there)

How I wish I could
Choose between heaven and hell
How I wish I would save my soul
I'm so cold from fear

I guess it's time I run
Far, far away
Find comfort in pain
All pleasure's the same
It just keeps me from trouble

Hides my true shape
Like Dorian Gray
I've heard what they say
But I'm not here for trouble

Far, far away
Find comfort in pain
All pleasure's the same
It just keeps me from trouble

It's more than just words
It's just tears and rain

Oh, tears and rain
Oh, tears and rain

Far, far away
Find comfort in pain
All pleasure's the same
It just keeps me from trouble

It's more than just words
It's just tears and rain
