The silver chair
Now lay forgotten
The table laid
The food now rotten
Another cage
Locked me away
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Push back the rain
Push back the rain
(Desire
Desire
Won’t bring your friends
Desire
Desire
Won’t bring your friends)
The dust was still
One candle burning
The corner dark
And full of yearning
Just you and me
Let’s wait and see
Just talk a while
Beginning with a smile
(I’ll buy a day
One hundred ways
The barber waits
For better days)
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Push back the rain
Push back the rain
(Desire
Desire
Won’t bring you friends
Desire
Desire
Won’t bring you friends)
Just you and me
Let’s wait and see
Just talk a while
Beginning with a smile
(The barber waits
For better days)
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Push back the rain
Push back the rain
(Desire
Desire
Won’t bring you friends
Desire
Desire
Won’t bring you friends)
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Push back the rain
Push back the rain
(Desire
Desire
Won’t bring you friends
Desire
Desire
Won’t bring you friends)
Silently she waits for me
She waits for me
