There's a meter maid standing on the corner when the rain starts again/she thinks her day ain't getting any brighter/ and she's not wrong/ I'm just sitting in a restaurant waiting for my shoes to dry/ I'm staring out the window when a bus stops but there ain't any riders/no one's getting on/ a man with a briefcase on his head goes rushing past/ he looks up at the sky and wonders/ is it gonna last/ the rain makes tiny rivers roll on down the glass/ of the window pane/ and I want to think of you again/ but my coffee cup is empty/ and the waitress tries to tempt me/ with another/ but I'm thinking that I ought to try to get myself together/ and get on home/ so I reach into my pocket/ pay the bill and start to walk/ when I get up to the doorway /you're  standing right before me/ with another/ no you're not alone/ you don't say a word/ and I don't say one either/ we just move to the edges of the doorway for each other/ you're coming in/ and I'm about to leave/ you brush against me/ and we don't breathe/ I'm lying next to you/ when my mind is drifting/ you say my name/ when your half asleep/ you know me/ even when I'm a stranger/ we ain't in love no more/ that's what were trying to believe/now I'm back out in the rain again/ I pull my collar to my chin/ turn into the weather/ well I guess it's now or never/ so I just/ I just start to walk/ two blocks up and one block over/ is the place where you stayed over for the first time/ a diner sign lighting up your body as you slept/ still and soft/ this town/ its too damn small/ every corner/ every window/ every wall/ they're pushing at me/ trying to make me fall/ I turn up the lane/ cuz I want to think of you again/ (Chorus)
