Watch him turn his collar up against the wet Stops a passerby and bums a cigarette Ducks inside a doorway, and I see him strike a light Pulls me back to everything I've ever known Papa's sudden rages, Mama turned to stone Prayin' for St. Anthony to come and make things right You don't look up and you don't talk back and your odds are ten to none Like a weed that grows from a pavement crack toward a patch of sun You hide yourself in a tiny space as the voices rise And you someplace, where no one ever cries Well if it keeps on raining I think I might float away Yes, if it keeps on raining I may The sky is overflowing The river's more like a bay Yes, if it keeps on raining I might float away One day Finishes his cigarette and throws it down Gives a little wave and then he heads downtown Fading in the darkness, til' he's finally gone from sight But I don't look up and I don't wave back cause' the odds are ten to none That a weed stays put in a pavement crack and it never finds the sun I fit myself in my tiny space as the waters rise And I wonder if He'll be back again With his broken face And his hard luck life And his sad brown eyes And if it keeps on raining I think I might float away Yes, if it keeps on raining I may The sky is overflowing And I am filled to the brim Yes, if it keeps on raining I might float away To him
