Bring Down the Rain Lyrics by Dio

Strange Highways

1993

[Verse 1]
Did you ever believe in your dreams before?
Were you always afraid of the dark?
Is the edge of the world always in your head?
Does the gun point straight at your heart?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
It used to come just when you sleep
But now, it's only a shout away
You always seem to find the sun
But this time, the sun is a fire

[Chorus]
Bring down the rain
This house is burning again
Put out the flame
Bring down the rain

[Verse 2]
You were told that the storm would just roll on by
That the thunder was made in your mind
And the heat in the night was to keep you warm
And the truth could be told by a liar now

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You always seem to find the light
But this time, the light is a fire

[Chorus]
Bring down the rain
This house is burning again
Put down the flame
Bring down the rain

[Bridge]
Shake up, break up, everybody make up
Everything's always the same
Trapped down, trapped down, everybody back down
Bring on the rain

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You always seem to find the light
But this time, the light is a fire

[Chorus]
Bring down the rain
This house is burning again
Don't play the game
Bring down the rain
Put out the flame
Bring down the rain

[Outro]
It's the shake up, break up, everybody make up
Well, it's always the same
Trapped down, cracked down, everybody back down
Won't you bring down all the rain?
