lyrics

When I first saw her in the mountains, the air was cool and thin
Her dark soft eyes they left me breathless, already knew I’d never win
And the life that I was leaving, I kept it hidden out of sight
Now the sound of distant gunfire, wakes me in the night

And the tears of the sun raining down, raining raining down - oh oh
And the tears of the sun raining down, raining raining down

You might never guess to know me, all the troubles I have seen
You know I took so many lives away and killed so many dreams
I know how you would watch me sleeping, half excited half afraid
With a killer for a lover and living half a world away

And the tears of the sun raining down, raining raining down - oh oh
And the tears of the sun raining down, raining raining down

The first time was the hardest, after that you no longer see
Don’t you be too quick to judge, you’ve never known poverty
And I never knew the men I killed, never saw the blood running red
Come on you know they had it coming, and the world is better with them dead

And the tears of the sun raining down, raining raining down - oh oh
And the tears of the sun raining down, raining raining down

Many years later, I returned to find her gone
They shot her in broad daylight, under the tears of the sun
And they said she never flinched. Cold steel in her eyes
They forced her to her knees, and they let the bullets fly

And the tears of the sun raining down, raining raining down - oh oh
And the tears of the sun raining down, raining raining down

They threw my body in the river. They threw away my dreams
The sun was blinking through the branches, as I floated down the stream
Now I’m forever in the mountains, in every leaf in every tree
Soaking up the sunlight while you struggle hard to breathe
Just soaking in the sunlight, while you struggle hard to breathe

And the tears of the sun raining down, raining raining down - oh oh
And the tears of the sun raining down, raining raining down - oh oh
And the tears of the sun raining down, raining raining down - oh oh
And the tears of the sun raining down, raining raining down - oh oh
And the tears of the sun raining down on everyone
