The first tear from the heavens was already from the earth
the second and the others were no less than the first
each of these is a woman that i could never touch
goodbye to heaven or goodbye to the touch
and at last when i can see her, still she falls away
another tear of rain will fall on another day
but when the last tear falls and the skies aren't clear
will you promise me that you will be here
with me,
after the rain,
when the skies
can feel no pain
will you be with me
will you be with me
with me,
after the rain
The last tear from the heavens was far from being alone
nothing more than a single glance, she could never be more known
though she is the last woman before the rainbow came
a tear alone is nothing but all the skies make rain
and when my rainbow finally makes it here so soon it fades away
another tear of rain will fall and soon another day
when the last tear falls and the skies aren't clear
will you promise me that you will be here
