A black cat moans 
When he's burning with the fever 
A stray dog howls 
When he's lonely in the night 
A woman goes crazy 
With the thought of retribution 
But a man starts weeping 
Whe he's sick and tired of life 
I keep on dreaming dreams of tomorrow 
Feel I'm wasting my time 
Lighting candles in the wind 
Always taking my chances 
On the promise of the future 
But a heart full of sorrow 
Paints a lonely tapestry 
The sun is shining 
But it's raining in my heart 
No one understands the heartache 
No one feels the pain '
Cos no one ever sees the tears 
When you're crying in the rain 
I can never deny 
All the sweet things 
I have tasted 
Tho' I've been mistreated 
I keep coming back for more 
I know where 
I'm going 
There's no hope of absolution 
I can't seem to separate 
The good times from the bad
