Lyric

The rain’s been falling since yesterday’s light

Hydrangeas blooming, a purple and blue sight

The scent of wet asphalt rises from the street

This is the path where our shadows used to meet

We met at a cafe on a dark, rainy day

You were a little damp, with nothing to say

"How long will it last?" you whispered so low

Then sat down beside me, with nowhere to go

We used to go to that shop all the time

Drinking iced coffee, feeling so sublime

Watching the milk swirl and spread in the glass

We were so happy, watching hours pass

We were so happy then

Small words went wrong, a slight turn of phrase

We couldn't be honest through the thick of the haze

Before I even knew it, our hearts drifted far

And you walked away, leaving a silent scar

The scenery the rain shows me tonight

Brings back your face in the dim city light

But when the clouds break and the pouring stops

I’ll let you go with the final rain drops

I'll let the memory fade

The rain is still falling, steady and slow

Standing on the corner with nowhere to grow

Remembering the days that we used to share

I know I was happy when you were there

Truly happy

In that rainy cafe

(Milk swirling... fading out...)
