Karaoké Rain King Counting Crows

When I think of Heaven

Deliver me in a blackwinged bird

I think of flying

Down in your sea of pens and feathers and all other instruments of faith and sex

And God

In the belly of a blackwinged bird

Don't try to feed me 'cos I've been here before and I deserve a little more

And I belong in the service of the queen

And I belong anywhere but in between

She's been crying and I've been thinking

And I am the rain king

And I said

Mama, mama, mama

Why am I so alone

'Cos I can't go outside

I'm scared I might not make it home

Well I'm alive

I'm alive but I'm sinking in

If there's anyone at home at your place darling why don't you invite me in

Don't try to feed me 'cos I've been here before and I deserve a little more

And I belong in the service of the queen

And I belong anywhere but in between

She's been crying and I've been thinking

And I am the rain king

Hey I only want the same as anyone

Henderson is waiting for the sun

Oh it seems night endlessly begins and ends

After all the dreaming

I come home again

When I think of Heaven

Deliver me in a blackwinged bird

I think of dying

Lay me down in a field of flame and heather

Render up my body into the burning heart of God

In the belly of a blackwinged bird

Don't try to bleed me 'cos I've been here before and I deserve a little more

I belong in the service of the queen

And I belong anywhere but in between

She's been dying and I've been drinking

And I am the rain king

Well I said that I am the rain king

Well I said I, I, I, I, I

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah

Well I am the rain king

Yeah
