Watch the Rain

[Intro]

Let it pour, let it fall down like your dreams

Let it go, let it flow away into the gutter

Let it wash all the colour away from yourself

Let it take away the pain

[Chorus]

I remember when you asked me do I ever watch the rain

And I remember I was watching it then but I just didn't want to say

And now when you look out your window it will never be the same

'Cuz when it pours down from now on you'll always think of my name, yeah

I'll be in your brain

[Post-Chorus]

And if you get a leak in your roof

Just think of it like my problems pouring through

And if you get a hole in your ceiling

Think of how I'll be feeling, cold and all alone

Like a drifting leaf, yeah, falling from the autumn trees yet again

(And again and again and again)

And again, oh oh

[Verse]

Watch it drop from the sky like a child running away

Watch it roll off the page like a tear from my face

Hear the pitter patter on the pavement like me knocking on your door

As it brushes the floor

[Chorus]

I remember when you asked me do I ever watch the rain

And I remember I was watching it then but I just didn't want to say

And now when you look out your window it will never be the same

'Cuz when it pours down from now on you'll always think of my name, yeah

I'll be in your brain

[Post-Chorus]

And if you get a leak in your roof

Just think of it like my problems pouring through

And if you get a hole in your ceiling

Think of how I'll be feeling, cold and all alone

Like a drifting leaf, yeah, falling from the autumn trees yet again

(And again and again and again)

And again, oh oh

[Bridge]

And I know you're working me out slowly but surely, slowly but surely

And I know you'll never tell about my other side

And that's why we all watch the rain, to wash away the secrets and the lies

'Cuz I know everyone watches the rain sometimes

[Outro]

Watch it fall down as you watched me fall for you

'Cuz you knew it was about you but you didn't have the guts to say

That you knew it was all for you
