The old man down on the corner

Is downing in his pain

I can see the sorrow in his eyes

His tears, the leave a stain

The streets have left him broken

He's in the final phase

It's been a long hard road

From his glory days.

There's a tatoo of his sweetheart

Fading on his arm

He talks of painful tragedy

How he lost his lucky charm

His memory is clouded

From the thunder in this vein

He's vanishing, vanishing gone

In the harlem rain.

Harlem rain coming down

Another shattered soul

In the lost and found

One more night

On the street of pain

Getting washed away by the harlem rain.

On desperation avenue

The devil takes his toll

Where the pushers and the poverty

Slowly claim your soul

When you reached the realization

That you just can't break the chain, no

You're vanishing, vanishing gone

In the harlem rain.

Harlem rain coming down

Another shattered soul

In the lost and found

One more night

On the street of pain

Getting washed away by the harlem rain (harlem rain).

In your seach for tender mercy

No one seemed to care

The faith that used to be your crutch

Is now your cross to bear

You last yourself so long ago

You don't know who to blame

You're vanishing, vanishing gone

Vanishing, vanishing gone

Vanishing, vanishing gone

In the harlem rain.
