When It Rained

There’s a green-eyed boy
sitting in front of me
Smiles like the night come alive
always up to something
Acts like there ain’t nothing on his mind
but I know better
Thinks he’s stickin round here for a while
and I might let him

For the nights it took me getting to his door
Where time stood still and the moment filled
All the days I cried when he left me to fly alone

Oh we thought everything
was handed out like we were raised
And I felt all my dreams imaginable
every time you sang
How you let me kiss your eyes
When it rained

I was emptier
when he was gone
Years filled with faces and years made memories
Everything I needed to know
was quickly answered
Looking at the past laying in his eyes
He barely survived

All the nights it took me getting to his door
Where we both claimed how our love remained
Through the days I cried when he left me to fly alone

Cho.

It’s all played out and when I watch it back I cry
A heavier songbird at the thought of goodbye
I won’t lose him again
I haven’t caught him up yet with kisses
So let it rain

Cho.
