The Birmingham sun 
It burned me through 
I thought of you 
And with every step I've made mistakes 
You've seen me though 
You've seen me true 
    
All these towns are lonesome 
All their streets the same 
Every rain's a downpour 
I'm nearly washed away 
As I wait 
    
This morning's news 
It seemed untrue 
But it's safe with you 
And with every step I've made mistakes 
You've seen me through 
You've seen me true 
    
All these towns are lonesome 
All their streets the same 
Every rain's a downpour 
I'm nearly washed away 
As I wait
    
All these towns are lonesome 
All their streets the same 
Every rain's a downpour 
I'm nearly washed away 
As I wait
    
All these towns are lonesome 
All their streets the same 
Every rain's a downpour 
When I've nearly washed away 
You've kept me sane
