Her brother started school again today
A thought to pass the time, to occupy my mind
Down in the basement, listening to the rain
Rain shining in her eyes

A thought to pass the time, to occupy my mind
She slipped into the night and she was gone

I've got some records on, and some bottles of wine
On a stormy night, the rain is coming down
On a stormy night, the rain is lashing down
Her brother started school again today
Rain shining in her eyes
The world seems so alive
While I'm waiting for her
Thinking things over, I think it over again
While I'm waiting for her
Rain shining in her eyes
Her brother started school again today
Gone to settle the score, gone into the town

Rain like never before
She slipped into the night and she was gone
She slipped into the night and she is gone
I think it over again
She'll be here soon, I lie back and drift away
I lie back and drift away
Gone to settle the score, gone into the town
While I'm waiting for her

I'm feeling so alive, feeling so real
And I'm waiting for her

A thought to pass the, time to occupy my mind

I'm riding it down, listen to the rain

Gone to settle the score, gone into the town
