První CD začali...
How does it feel when all you're counting on is scatterbrained
Every wind that you have sailed upon, a hurricane
Every summer you have seen was filled with April rain
It doesn't get easy, don't you know
Fortune smiles on you
You're not watching, dig that hole deeper
Fortune smiles on you
You're not watching, create your own fate
Count your blessings and prepare to change your point of view
All those days that you spend waiting won't come back to you
Take off the glasses that have treated your world black and grey
It doesn't get easy, don't you know
Fortune smiles on you
You're not watching, dig that hole deeper
Fortune smiles on you
You're not watching, create your own fate
Keep raining 'cause we are blind
Keep raining 'cause we are tired
Keep raining 'cause we are blind to fortune's guidance now
It keeps raining, 'cause we are blind
It will keep raining, 'cause we are tired
It keeps raining, 'cause we are blind oh
It will keep raining 'cause we are tired
Fortune smiles on you
You're not watching, dig that hole deeper
Fortune smiles on you
You're not watching, create your own fate
