I don’t mind, no I don’t mind, I don’t mind the rain Simple things and subtleties, they always stay the same I don’t mind, that I don’t mind, no I don’t mind the rain Like a widow’s heart, we fall apart, but never fade away (fade away) Run like a child do you know where I came from? No I don’t, but I’m singing all the same songs I’m alone, and you’re looking for your anyone Does it hurt just to know that it’s all gone? I can feel the pain in the words that you say Hidden in the letters that were written to no name Let me be the hands that you hold to your face 'Cause I’d give it all up if I could take it away Buried in red, white, and a side of some blue Some will die too late, and somebody too soon If he could come back, we’ll see what it cost him We had to lose it all, just to know that we lost one Hi, I’m just a shape in the shadow of grates Hi, I’m just a voice in the choir of saints Oh all the souls that nobody could save And just like a light, we faded away I don’t mind, no I don’t mind, I don’t mind the rain Simple things and subtleties, they always stay the same I don’t mind, that I don’t mind, no I don’t mind the rain Like a widow’s heart, we fall apart, but never fade away (fade away) Fade away, as I fade away, away, away If I could take it all back Before the flags were forced to wave at half mast That was long before my heart became black There’s no way to make it change or go back You know that some of us grow old, with no homes Some of us die in a cold house, with no hope Still surrounded by the people you don’t know, so don’t go 'Cause it’s over the time fades your photo How many goodbyes can fit in a lifetime? How many good lies can make it seem alright? What do you see when you look into my eyes? Or in the sky right before you say goodnight? I could be the son that stands beside of your bed And I could be the voice right inside of your head I could say goodbye and you know where I went I just wrote a letter that’ll never be sent I don’t mind, no I don’t mind, I don’t mind the rain Simple things and subtleties, they always stay the same I don’t mind, that I don’t mind, no I don’t mind the rain Like a widow’s heart, we fall apart, but never fade away (fade away) Fade away, as I fade away, away, away As I fade away, away, away As I fade away, away, away As I fade away
