Lyrics:

In a country churchyard

I came across a man

He smiled and slowly beckoned me

With a trembling hand

Did you come to gamble

Or did you come to pray

What’s the meaning of your business here

On a stormy day

The raindrops spattered on the tomb

From grey and leaden Skies

Deny me once, deny me twice

But don’t look in my eyes…

 

There is rain on the graves

There is rain on the graves

There is rain on the graves

It’s just rain, rain, rain

There is rain on the graves

But you came to be saved

There is rain on the graves

Let it wash your soul of dying

 

Faithless, he denied the truth

That he had come to steal

To kneel before the poet

Not the altar or the priest

He’s washed himself in misery

Before he came to pray

He’d hoped in his false penitence

Some sympathy he’d sway

 

There is rain on the graves

There is rain on the graves

There is rain on the graves

It’s just rain, rain, rain

There is rain on the graves

But you came to be saved

There is rain on the graves

It’s just rain, rain, rain

 

I am the God of sinners

You are what I have made

You’re talking to your likeness

And my shadow is your shade

Stand up and face the mirror

It’s the image that you crave

But i’ll be here when you’re long gone

I’ll see you in that grave

Ha, ha, ha

 

There is rain on the graves

There is rain on the graves

There is rain on the graves

It’s just rain, rain, rain

There is rain on the graves

Rain on the graves

There is rain on the graves
