You can dream the American Dream
But you sleep with the lights on
And wake up with a scream

You can hope against hope
That nothing will change
Grab a hold of that fistful of rain


Grab a hold, grab a hold, grab a hold
Grab a hold, grab a hold, grab a hold of that fistful of rain


When your grasp has exceeded your reach
And you put all your faith

In a figure of speech
You've heard all the answers
But the questions remain

Grab a hold of that fistful of rain

Grab a hold, grab a hold, grab a hold

Grab a hold, grab a hold, grab a hold of that fistful of rain

And when diamonds turn back into coal

Grab a hold, children, grab a hold
When the mountains crumble
And you're ready to rumble

And roll like a runaway train...

And when diamonds turn back into coal

Grab a hold, children, grab a hold
When the mountains crumble
And you're ready to rumble

And roll like a runaway train...

In a heart there are windows and doors

You can let the light in
You can feel the wind blow
When there's nothing to lose

And nothing to gain
Grab a hold of that fistful of rain


Grab a hold, grab a hold, grab a hold of that fistful of rain
Grab a hold, grab a hold, grab a hold of that fistful of rain
