Even though you're near me
I need you far away
(Away)
To be an ocean
To build another way
(Way)
I'll be broken
And I know it
But I just can't
Seem to find
Another way
Though you want to
Though you try to
You can't stop the rain
For the first time
It's not you
Who can heal me
(Heal me)
I need some distance
To find another road
It's not so easy
Sorrows such a heavy load
(Heavy load)
I'll be broken
And I'll show it
But I'm gonna have to live
Without you here
Though you want to
Though you try to
You can't stop the rain
For the first time
It's not you
Who can heal me
(Heal me)
Poets say
As time decays
Our broken souls will mend
But you would come around again
So my sorrow's gonna end
But it's not you
(Not you)
Heal me, now
(Heal)
But it's not you
(Not you)
Heal me
(Heal)
(Though you want to)
Though you want to
(Though you try to)
Though you try to
(Ahh)
You can't stop the rain
(Ahh, rain)
For the first time
(First time)
It's not you
Who can heal me
(Though you want to)
Though you want to
(Though you try to)
Though you try to
You can't stop the rain
(Rain)
For the first time
(First time)
It's not you
(Not you)
Who can heal me
Heal me
