The Swell Season
"The Rain"

Just before the rain came down
The sun came out at last
And as for all assumptions made,
And questions never asked
I know we're not where I promised you we'd be by now
But maybe it's a question of who'd want it anyhow?

Even now the rainbow's end seems closer to your hands
And is it knowing when to stop
The measure of a man?
Okay
We're not what I promised you we would become
But maybe it's a question of how much it really was

We had enough
Had enough
There's plenty more where that came from now
You're feeling bored
Swallowed up
We got hours on you now

Just before the rain came down
The sun came out at last
And as for all assumptions
And questions never asked

Okay
I'm not what I promised you I would become
I know
We're not what I promised you we'd be by now

Had enough
Had enough
There's plenty more where that came from now
Feeling bored
Swallowed up
We got hours on you now
Feeling tall
Is the crawling out
We got hours on you now
