Lyrics

It's Raining Today

[Verse 1]

It's raining today

And I'm just about to forget

The train window girl

That wonderful day we met

She smiles through the smoke

From my cigarette

[Verse 2]

It's raining today

But once there was summer and you

And dark little rooms

And sleep in late afternoons

Those moments descend

On my window pane

[Bridge]

I've hung around too long

Listenin' to the old landlady's hard-luck stories

You out of me, me out of you

We go like lovers to replace the empty space

Repeat our dreams to someone new

[Verse 3]

It's raining today

And I watch the cellophane streets

No hang-ups for me

'Cause hang-ups need company

The street corner girl's

A cold trembling leaf

[Outro]

It's raining today

It's raining today
