I don’t want to hear excuses about where you were last night You’re so selfish, wandering around the town, crazy dude The sleepless nights when the depression and loneliness overwhelm me are continuing Now’s our chance, for this stereotypical romance
When will I start reminiscing about when we met? Because I’d rather have a future than a past, ah
Like a hard rain, I want you to sweep away everything With your sheer intensity Hold me tight, don’t let me see you cry, please Like a hard rain, tenderness Won’t cure the pain in my heart Show me not words but masculinity So much that you make me laugh
It’s not going to work between us I don’t learn, I could see this dilemma coming I'm such a coward; my heart trembles at night I sound you out with a joke, these words are like a bunch of flowers If you see through me, even our love will fade
I want you to tell me the truth Without even giving me time to breathe, ah
Like a hard rain, I want A tight feeling of love once again Conspiring fingers, tired dreams Nobody wants that Like a hard rain, you always say The opposite of what you mean You still don’t get that I’m just pretending to be strong I’m a bit tired of it
Like a hard rain, I want you to sweep away everything With your sheer intensity Hold me tight, don’t let me see you cry, please Like a hard rain, tenderness Won’t cure the pain in my heart Show me not words but masculinity So much that you make me laugh
