Black as Rain lyrics

[Verse 1]
Have you ever, ever lost
Something you can't replace
But you still, yeah, you still search anyway?
And the earth's in reverse
It's so lonely in the crowd
And I scream in my pillow and I break

[Chorus 1]
If I could just go back to yesterday
I'd take it all back, take it all back
I'd take it all back again
Yeah, my world got lost since you went away
Everything's black, everything's black
It's as black as rain
Oh, oh

[Verse 2]
Do you wish that your tears
Didn't come too late
Or the days and the nights blur into one? No
There's a place that I go
In my sweetest memories
Where I see, see a smile in the sun

[Chorus]
If I could just go back to yesterday
I'd take it all back, take it all back
I'd take it all back again
Yeah, my world got lost since you went away
Everything's black, everything's black
It's as black as rain
Oh, oh
[Bridge]
And the sun turned black and the sky turned grey
And the crows all flew away
And the flowers died and the old man cried
Yeah, the stars all seemed to fade
What do I do without you?
What do I do without you?
What do I do without you?
You

[Chorus]
If I could just go back to yesterday
I'd take it all back, I'd take it all back
I'd take it all back again
Yeah, my world got lost since you went away
Everything's black, everything's black
It's as black as rain, yeah
If I could just go back to yesterday
I'd take it all back, take it all back
I'd take it all back again
Yeah, my world got lost since you went away
Everything's black, everything's black
It's as black as rain
