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
