the sky is raining tears tonight my brother you know it s hard to sleep so far from home the moon has covered up her eyes my sister i thought i d find you here but i am all alone all alone chorus light of heaven lord of mercy shine the goodness of your love upon this day till we see you till we know you till the sorrow and the darkness fade away fade away i searched the city streets today my father the tunnel and the train the river and the rain i walked beneath the harbor lights my mother and in the shadows there i call your name i call your name chorus
