The morning clouds
Are gathering around
As I stand
On the bridge of the river
Years have gone since
I was here
And I wonder how I differ
Taxicabs keep rolling by
And a blind man
Asks for change
And here I stand
A soldier in the rain
Coming home
Was all I thought of
Seeing my family
And friends
They say love knows no distance
But the lonely never ends
And all along the dreams
That possessed my heart
Never were to plain
And here I stand
A soldier in the rain
I remember years ago
I had so many plans
And now I watch
The river flow
Time has brought me here
With empty hands
I remember years ago
I had so many plans
And now I watch
The river flow
Time has brought me here
With empty hands
The morning clouds
Are gathering around
And the streets
Are full of reflections
A traffic light
And the moon still bright
People going in
Different directions
I've thought about why I'm here
It's just too hard
To explain
Say here I stand
A soldier in the rain
