Analysis of Life's Pain
Angela Crabtree 1982 (maine)
A: Do not cry from your pain
B: Running from your past
A: Listen now, confidence, your heart will gain
A: Running through the pouring rain
B: Because you know he will not last
A: Now I fear I am going insane
A: Do not cry from your pain
B: You will not lose him, your living in the past
A: Listen now, confidence, your heart will gain
A: Do not fear, you're going in the rain
B: Living and dying shall not last
A: For you will have confidence to gain
A: I run and run trying to get out of the rain
B: Running hiding and trying to dodge our past
A: the ground I tread on, I seldom feel the pain
A: My life is ending and my conscious is beating on by the rain
B: It's over no matter what, it all happened at last
A: I ran and ran trying to get out of the rain
A: I hid, hid from it all, hid from all your pain
