Eurythmics - The Day It Rained Forever lyrics

Once upon a time there was a funny girl Who fell for a funny boy They built a funny house and made some funny kids And christened it the house of holy joy If forever meant forever that was the place Or so she told her friends But the city took her lovers to another world Left her waiting for the flowers to bloom again And she laughed And she cried She damn near died On the day it rained forever She walked around the garden with an empty mind Feeling tired and worn Not exactly sure what she was meant to find Heaven knows maybe a rose without a thorn
