Kasey Chambers - I Wish It Would Rain (feat. Ashleigh Dallas) Lyrics
(orig. by Nanci Griffith)Oh, I wish it would rainAnd wash my face cleanI want to find some dark cloud to hide in hereLove in a memorySparkled like diamondsWhen the diamonds fall they burn like tearsOnce I had a love from the Georgia pinesWho only cared for meI wanna find that love of twenty-twoHere at thirty-threeI've got a heart on my rightOne on my left neither suits my needsNo, the one I love lives a-way out WestAnd he never will need meI'm gonna pack up my two step shoesAnd head for the Gulf Coast plainsI wanna walk the streets of my own hometownWhere everybody knows my nameI wanna ride the waves down in GalvestonWhen the hurricane blow in'cause that Gulf Coast water tastes sweet as wineWhen your heart's rollin' home in the windWhen the diamonds fall, darlin'They burn like tears
