The Who

Behind Blue Eyes

No one knows what it's like to be the bad man to be the sad man behind blue eyes
No one knows what it's like to be hated to be fated to telling only lies
But my dreams they aren't as empty as my conscience seems to be
I have hours, only lonely my love is vengeance that's never free

No one knows what it's like to feel these feelings like I do and I blame you
No one bites back as hard on their anger none of my pain and woe can show through
But my dreams they aren't as empty as my conscience seems to be
I have hours, only lonely my love is vengeance that's never free

When my fist clenches, crack it open before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news before I laugh and act like a fool
And if I swallow anything evil put your finger down my throat
And if I shiver, please give me a blanket keep me warm, let me wear your coat
No one knows what it's like to be the bad man to be the sad man behind blue eyes

Love, Reign O'er Me

Only love can make it rain the way the beach is kissed by the sea
Only love can make it rain like the sweat of lovers laying in the fields
Love, reign o'er me love, reign o'er me rain on me, rain on me

Only love can bring the rain that makes you yearn to the sky
Only love can bring the rain that falls like tears from on high
Love, reign o'er me rain on me, rain on me
Love, reign o'er me rain on me, rain on me

On the dry and dusty road the nights we spend apart alone
I need to get back home to cool, cool rain
I can't sleep, and I lay, and I think the night is hot and black as ink
God, I need a drink of cool, cool rain
Love, reign o'er me reign o'er me, o'er me, o'er me
Love, reign o'er me, o'er me love
