Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How do I reply to you
When you say that you've made up your mind
Please don't walk away from me
Speak to me honostly
Tell me is this really what you want?
Chorus:
Tell me it means nothing
But I know it means something
Because it washed away my pain!
You tell me that you're leaving
But I know you will need me!
'Cause you said I completly
Cleared your world of bain
What about the promiss you made
To keep me from the rain.
Wont you tell me what went wrong?
Why can we not go on?
Without you how can I start again?
I miss how you laught with me
Talked with me constantly
'Cause your smile brightened up my day
Chorus:
You take away your loving
Tell me it means nothing
But I know it means something
Because it washed away my pain!
You tell me that you're leaving
But I know you will need me!
'Cause you said I completly
Cleared your world of bain
What about the promiss you made
To keep me from the rain.
Keep me from the rain and the pain
And the emptyness you leave behind
Like you used to once before
Why...
Don't you want me?
Don't you need me?
Don't you love me?
Keep me from the rain and the pain
And the emptyness you leave behind
Like you used to once before
You take away your loving
Tell me it means nothing
But I know it means something
Because it washed away my pain!
You tell me that you're leaving
But I know you will need me!
'Cause you said I completly
Cleared your world of bain
What about the promiss you made
To keep me from the rain.
From the rain
What about the promiss you made
To keep me from the rain.
The promiss that you made
To keep me from the rain.
