Alice Wallace - When She Cries Lyrics




They say it never rains in southern California
The summer's dry, and the winter's just the same
But today the skies they opened up and poured down on her
Washing all the nevers down the drain

I almost can't recall the last time I heard thunder
Or looked up at a sky so dark and grey
And it's funny how I never stopped to wonder
At every endless perfect sunny day

But now it's raining in the city of Angels
She just couldn't hold her tears back if she tried
And now the water drains so slow, it's got nowhere to go
And her tears come in rivers when she cries

The freeways have an inch of standing water
Cause the sewers can't keep up with the flood
But we're all still moving at 80 mph
Because caution never did us any good

I almost never pay attention to the weather
And you know, it almost never lets me down
Cause it almost never rains in southern California
But when it does, lord help us or we'll drown

You know it's raining in the city of Angels
The LA river's rising faster than it oughta
The hour's getting late, her shoulders just can't bear the weight
Seems like the whole world's underwater

You know it's raining in the city of Angels
Smearing that mascara from our eyes
We saw the clouds roll in, but we bet wrong on the wind
Now all we can do is curse the sky
Now all we can do is curse the sky
Now all we can do is curse the sky
