Walking In The Rain
Modern Romance Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴Verse 1
Today I saw you walking in the rain, I could feel the sadness in your eyes
Somehow I just had to know your name, cause I've been lonely
I know what it's like to be afraid, sometimes it's hard to understand
Life just ain't worth living's what you said, I don't believe you
Bridge
So listen to me girl 'cause I've been there
Next time you go walking in the rain
Remember me
Chorus
There's no use in pretending, it really doesn't matter to me
It's you that I believe in
You owe it to yourself and that's the way it's got to be
Verse 2
Life's too short you've often heard it said, Oh I really know the way you feel
Mixed emotions gather in your head, Or am I dreaming
Remember all the good times that you had, All those friends and what they think of you
Learn to live together good and bad, Or am I dreaming
Bridge & chorus
