It sure did rain on that farewell day
My town it never seems to shine
I waved them years and the childhood tears
And sore memories goodbye
It sure did rain on that farewell day
My town it never seems to shine
I waved them years and the childhood tears
And sore memories goodbye
Walked down the road
Gave the one last look
My mom, no, she didn't cry
Said, my son, go sing your songs
Always hold your head high
Always hold your head high!
Go follow your heart
So long for the grey pouring rain!
World's for the ones born longing to stray
Go follow your heart
So long for the grey pouring rain!
And I'll be back on some sunny day
It sure did rain on that farewell day
My town it never seems to shine
I stood and watched the flood of lies
Wash away so many men's pride
Saw them been swallowed
By the hail of notes
The storm of greed passed me by
The grace has truly abandoned us
And you still wonder why
Do you still wonder why?
Go follow your heart
So long for the grey pouring rain!
World's for the ones born longing to stray
Go follow your heart
So long for the grey pouring rain
And I'll be back on some sunny day
Go follow your heart
So long for the bygones and for the grey down-pouring rain
And I'll be back
And I'll be back
And I'll be back...
...On some sunny day
Hey!
On some sunny day, yeah yeah!
