Tears In The Rain

Someone in the doorway
Barced against the cold
Red brick against his back
He thought he'd been so bold
With bitterness inside him
He recalled her face and name
She told him that she loved him
He told her the same
And walked away

Still her face before him
His guitar began to play
The band rocked on behind him
The crowd begun to sway
His album climbed the charts
Like a bullet from a gun
Fans numbered in the thousends
And he was number one

Dreamer dreaming dreams of youth
Dreams of days gone by
Dreams are spun by liars
Who won't release the lie
Don't you know ... there's
Murder in money, prison in fame
Danger in love, and tears in the rain

He stood in a silhuette
At last he wore the crown
Desire of a lifetime
On stage in his home town
And in the street outside
Was a long-forgotten face
Praying for the dreamer
She wept for boy's mistakes

And as he left the theathre
In his limousine
He saw her in an instant
Felt the breath of their lost dreams
But rock'n'roll was calling
The spotlight never waits
A crying girl and her God
Watched him move on to his fate
