|
In a rusted red Chevy with a heart full of glory |
|
She left that night |
|
A suitcase at the door open wide let the cold air come in |
|
And then she asked me for a light |
|
Said she had some old business see an old friend |
|
Or maybe make a new start |
|
But the words of her reason they changed with the season |
|
And the truth burned in my heart |
|
It blew me away and I thought I'd go crazy |
|
'Cause I knew even then I was caught |
|
I'm caught in the rain again |
|
I pray to the Heavens to defend me |
|
I'm caught in the rain |
|
Why's it seem like more rain that they send me? |
|
So I listen to the wind for the answer |
|
Time hangs heavy on my face |
|
I run from the storm that's on it's way |
|
Until I find there is no place |
|
No person, no thing I can run to, no shelter I can gain from the rain |
|
Yes I know this time it's too late, now |
|
'Cause I'm caught in the rain again |
|
And I pray to the Heavens to defend me |
|
I'm caught in the rain |
|
Why's it seem like more rain that they send me? And they send me |
|
And the rain comes down so silently |
|
And time stand's still like it's in front of me |
|
And the years turn to the rain |
|
And this silence kills me |
|
So now in this one horse town bar |
|
I sing in the back room in the December night |
|
Here she comes through the doorway |
|
With a blustering wind that's too cold to forget |
|
She looks like she knew me |
|
The heat shot through me, melted me down |
|
So we sat and talked about the old days |
|
Or any new things that we found |
|
Talked about the days when we were so much younger and innocent |
|
We saw it plain, we were just caught in the rain |
|
We're caught in the rain again |
|
I pray to the Heavens to defend me |
|
Caught in the rain |
|
Why's it seem like more rain that they send me? |
|
I'm out here on my knees |
|
And my love knows I've been trying |
|
Still I'm caught in the rain on these old fool ideas I'm relying |
|
So I guess she gets me the rain again |
