Song for a Rainy Day
The rain falls harder than before you came,
The rain falls harder now you've gone away
I never knew you well, but I knew you more than most,
You haunted my dreams like a lingering ghost,
I wait to see you still walking down dark corridors
The rain falls harder than before you came,
The rain falls harder now you've gone away
We had it in our hands, but we couldn't hold on,
For I had seen you there, but when I turned you had gone,
And all of everything was not enough for you
The rain falls harder than before you came,
The rain falls harder now you've gone away
I bent my ears to hear all the stories that you told,
You promised me beneath your sheets we'd never grow old,
But like all empty words, you simply slipped away
The rain falls harder than before you came,
The rain falls harder now you've gone away
All the things that you said were just lies in your bed,
There are no monsters underneath cos they were all in your head,
And the more that you take the less you get to keep
