Rain King

Counting Crows

Across A Wire - Live In New York : Disc Two - MTV Live From The 10 Spot

When I think of Heaven
You deliver me in a black-winged bird
Well, I think of flying
Down into a sea of pens and feathers
And all other instruments of faith
And sex and God, in the belly of a black-winged bird

Don't try to feed me
'Cause I've been here before
And I deserve a little more

I belong in the service of the Queen
I belong anywhere but in between
She's been crying, I've been thinking
And I am the rain King

I said mama, mama
Why am I so alone?
I can't go outside, 'cause I'm scared that I might not make it home
Well, I'm alive
Yeah, but look at me, I'm just sinking in
If there's anyone at home at your place, darling, hey, come on, come on, come on

Don't try to bleed me
'Cause, well, I've been there before
And I deserve a little more

I belong in the service of the Queen
I belong anywhere but in between
She's been lying, I've been sinking
And I am the rain King

Hey, I only want the same as anyone
Mr. Henderson's just waiting for the sun
Well, all it seems night endlessly begins and ends and ends and begins and begins and ends and ends and begins
Well, after all the dreaming, I just wanna come back home again

So shy, shy, look what I found
Your eyes have taken me out of bounds
Shy, shy, look what I found
I'm so shy, shy, but look what I found
Your eyes taken me out of bounds
Shy, shy, but look what I found

She said "when I think of Heaven"
She said, she said "when I think of Heaven"
She said, she said "when I think of Heaven"
She said, she said "I think of you
How come you don't think of me too?"

And I said "you know, it's 'cause
When I think of Heaven
Deliver me in a black-winged bird
I think of dying
Well, come on, lay me down in a field of flame and heather
Render up my, my, my, my, my body into the burning heart of God
In the belly of a black-winged bird"

But don't try to bleed me
'Cause, look, I've been here before
And I deserve a little more

I belong in the service of the Queen
I belong, yeah, anywhere but in between
She's been dying and I've been drinking
And I am the rain King

I said that I am the rain King
Hey, I said goodnight Elisabeth
So sorry now
But I am the rain King

She said "well, why don't you just come in out of the rain?"
