Well someone told me
Back when I was younger
Never see the rain fall
'Til you felt the thunder.
There's no denying
There's no mistaking
An easy smile
From a hand that's shaking.
When the time's right
You'll see the light
Coming down the road ahead of you.
Like a hard rain through blue skies
Let the scales fall from your eyes
Let a little light come on through.
No need to hide
Stay under the covers
One piece falling
After the others
My oh my oh my
Some people never learn
Out of the pan
And into the fire
Throw what's left upon the roaring pyre
Why oh why oh why do you let it
Burn
From Cleopatra
To Cain and Abel
There's only so much
Sweep under the table.
I think that you've heard
I think you'll know
That what you're reaping
Is what you've sown.
No need to hide
Stay under the covers
One piece falling
After the others
My oh my oh my
Some people never learn
Out of the pan
And into fire
Throw the rest upon the roaring pyre
Why oh why oh why do you let it
Burn
When the time's right
You'll see the light
Coming down the road ahead of you
Like a hard rain through blue skies
Let the scales fall from your eyes
And let a little light come on through
No need to hide
Stay under the covers
One piece falling
After the others
My oh my oh my
Some people never learn
Out of the pan
And into the fire
Throw the rest upon the roaring pyre
Why oh why oh do you let it
