This Has Happened Before

[Verse 1] Last night's old anger this morning made me cry But the rain like an old friend came by to change my mind The wind knows no secrets but like it knew what was in store Reminds me oh so kindly this has happened before [Verse 2] Been waiting at my window, I thought I heard your name But the quiet of the evening was teasing me again It's not too late for talking but I'm afraid to ask for more And the wind recalls that, after all, this has happened before [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] And all of your memories seem to be laughing at my pain Trying not to listen is like talking to the rain [Verse 3] A love like a candle can't take me through the storm It's bright enough to burn me but too weak to keep me warm I find my explanations when I won't need them anymore But me and my old friends know this has happened before But me and the wind know this has happened before
