	Story Behind the Song The song was inspired by an photograph that I am sure I have seen, just can't quite remember where and who the photographer was. It was a post acopalyptic vision of a man in an orange suit standing in a city desert landscape. It was bleak but hopefull because he was looking at something on the horizon. It was recorded in Perth, Western Australia with my band. Lyrics Blue Rain I watch the petals fall from the flowers They're a ghostly shade of pale Where the colours have gone I could not tell you But what I do know is that they have gone And all these people look like refugees Brown and broken like autumn leaves There's resignation in your step I see Tell me now, are we waiting for the rain? Hold me in the blue rain Help me see the bottom of the glass Hold me in the blue rain Let's not fall so fast Now the messenger is crying He says there is a hole in the floor He says the people outside have lost their shame And that we should all go home and lock our doors Hold me in the blue rain Help me see the bottom of the glass Hold me in the blue rain Let's not fall so fast All the panic falls in dew and blue Softly down around a our feet For reasons I cannot explain What is left here is learned from standing in the rain Hold me in the blue rain Help me see the bottom of the glass Hold me in the blue rain Let's not fall so fast
