in words
Manchester Rain
Chorus
Manchester rain falling down on me
Wash away these tears so that I can see
No breathe of life on these streets of shame
Sweet waters falling, Manchester rain
Verse 1
In the early hours when the world’s asleep
It strikes so hard it strikes so deep
Pictures you had intime you’ve lost them
She may be gone but she’s not forgotten
Chorus
Manchester rain falling down on me
Wash away these tears so that I can see
No breathe of life on these streets of shame
Sweet waters falling, Manchester rain
Bridge
Ride a white horse at breakneck speed
Over the cliffs and into the sea
Ride a white horse into the spray
Remind me of home of Manchester’s rain
Words you shared as childhood friends could
You died a boy when you took manhood
Nobody knows what the future will hold
He’s forever young, watching you grow old
Chorus
Manchester rain falling down on me
Wash away these tears so that I can see
No breathe of life on these streets of shame
Sweet waters falling, Manchester rain
Outro
Manchester rain
Manchester rain
MANCHESTER RAIN
