"I'm told this bluesy, progressive ballad will be a big hit. I wrote it while playing in St. Pierre & Miquelon in the spring of '88 after coming out of a rather stormy relationship wondering, could anyone else ever care for me?."
BABY CAN'T STOP THE RAIN, THE RAIN IN MY EYES
BABY CAN'T STAND THE PAIN, HERE DEEP INSIDE
& SHE'S TRIED A HUNDRED TIMES
THOUGH I'LL NEVER KNOW WHYSHE CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN, ONLY TO FIND
THE SAME SAD OLD STORY, A BROKEN HEART LIKE MINE
& SHE'S TRYING TO CHANGE IT, IF THE PIECES SHE'LL FIND
SHE'S GONNA' FIND...chorus...
LOVE CARRIES ON, WHEN HEARTACHES ARE GONE
LET'S US BELIEVE, WHEN WE ARE STRONG
LOVE CARRIES ON, WHEN WE LIVE AS ONE...
I WAS LEFT BY THE WAYSIDE, IN THE CITY OF LIES
IN A MILLION PIECES, NEAR THE RIVER OF SIGHS
I KNOW SHE CAN HELP ME, SHE WILL IF I TRY
SHE'S GONNA' TRY...
(chorus, solo)
BABY CAN'T STOP THE RAIN, THE RAININ' OUTSIDE
BABY CAN HELP THE PAIN, THAT'S LEFT BEHIND
SHE'S GONNA' STOP IT LIKE THIS...
