John T. Wurzer - That Kind of Rain Lyrics

I was standing outside of the music singing a love song riding a train
A hole in my soul; and no way to refuse it, there ain't no umbrella for that kind of rain

When it started it was more like a rumor, less like a virus, a foreign disease
Born in a market in China, on the other side of the world if you please
But somehow it spread like a blanket all over this planet through cities and towns
Through mountains, forests, subways and florists, like death at the door just making the rounds
Still I'm still standing outside of the music, singing a love song, going insane
The weather report is abusive, there ain't no umbrella for that kind of rain

We're locked up here in our cages, conscious of ages, and playing it safe
Our noses pinned to the windows, hands on the glass, like a bakery shop waif
Ain't this a kick in the ass when we're all wearing masks and it's not Halloween
Keeping everyone at a distance, and at each passing instance, wiping everything clean
As we're standing outside of the music singing our love song from the great plains
Love is the answer; no one will choose it; ain't no umbrella for that kind of rain

Newspapers, and cable news pundits, and others have shunned it, and screamed it's a hoax
But it's true that people are dying, the graveyards aren't lying, when somebody croaks
Even as the body count rises, naysayers disguise the facts as crock
Corpses pile up in the alleys, it seems like reality TV is in shock
And we're all standing outside of the music singing a love song trying to explain
Death is a fact, there's no way to confuse it; there ain't no umbrella for that kind of rain

I was standing outside of the music singing a love song riding a train
A hole in my soul; and no way to refuse it, there ain't no umbrella for that kind of rain
