Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm givin' up on all the sadness
I'm givin' up on all the dark
Gon' walk away from all the madness
That keeps on pulsin' through my heart
[Verse 2]
I can smell the rain
Come now and wash away
I can smell the rain
I know now I will be sane
[Verse 3]
Hoo, ooh, hoo, ooh, ooh
Hoo, ooh, hoo, ooh, ooh, hoo, ooh, hoo, ooh, ooh
Hoo, ooh, hoo, ooh, ooh
Hoo, ooh, hoo, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, hoo
[Verse 4]
There ain't no light left from the fire
There ain't no distant lion's roar
I can't stand to get much higher
Though I am faced down on the floor
[Verse 5]
I can smell the rain
Come now and wash away
I can smell the rain
I know now I will be sane
[Verse 6]
Hoo, ooh, hoo, ooh, ooh
Hoo, ooh, hoo, ooh, ooh, hoo, ooh, hoo, ooh, ooh
Hoo, ooh, hoo, ooh, ooh
Hoo, ooh, hoo, ooh, ooh, hoo, ooh, hoo, ooh, ooh
[Verse 7]
My old ears, they hear no evil
See no love with vacant eyes
Can't find the kindness in common people
So I think I'll leave this place behind
[Verse 8]
I can smell the rain
Come now and wash away
I can smell the rain
I know now I will be sane
[Verse 9]
I can smell the rain
I know now I will be sane
I can smell the rain
I know now I will be sane
