lyrics

The rainfall's like a phone call from an old friend
Saying "Your journey's over"
Meantime my deadline's the horizon
It's drawing closer

"Hey mister bartender, can I have another beer?
My glass is as empty as my heart
And I’ve come so far
Yes, my home’s so far
Yes, she lives so far from here"

And I just close my eyes and you're beside me
You say you miss me
Tell myself sweet lies and you're beside me
You start to kiss me
I just close my eyes and you are there
And love is in the air

Open up my eyes and you're not there

And it's raining outside, it's raining outside
It's raining outside, it’s raining outside
It’s raining outside
