Tears and Rain
Only recently did I get a chance to listen to James Blunt (I know Im a little late :)), the singer-song-writer, whose debut album ‘Back to Bedlam’ created quite a wave. He sings as if he is crying out a prayer for the heavens to hear, making you want to cry right beside him.. His voice has this animal-like quality that could echo within the hollow corridors of your mind.. His words are so perfect that they seem to have engraved in your heart forever..
I was touched by each and every song in this album. This is one of the songs that brought a tear to my eye.
Tears and Rain….
How I wish I could surrender my soul;
Shed the clothes that become my skin;
See the liar that burns within my needing.
How I wish I'd chosen darkness from cold.
How I wish I had screamed out loud,
Instead I've found no meaning.
I guess it's time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.
How I wish I could walk through the doors of my mind;
Hold memory close at hand,
Help me understand the years.
How I wish I could choose between Heaven and Hell.
How I wish I would save my soul.
I'm so cold from fear.
I guess it's time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
Far, far away; find comfort in pain.
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.
This album is special to me because it was the first present ever to be gifted by my beloved. Other beautiful songs in this album are ‘You’re Beautiful’, 'Goodbye My Lover’, ‘High’ and ‘Cry’.
