Standing In The Rain

(album: Warehouse: Songs And Stories - 1987)

Looking outside my window
And all I see is grey
I'm watching the clouds roll by every day
And we make a reservation
You say you'll be on time
I say, "I might be a little late"

Well, I pull it together and brush my teeth
And comb my hair
I stop to think and I can see you there
I think of the times you've waited
Just for me to care
I care about you

Checking the clock inside
The room we call our own
I see that I'm late, I should get going
Hop on a local transit
Spending all my change
And I can still hear the telephone

I wanna go back, but I'm halfway to
The place where we will meet
And I'm half dead on my feet
And once I get there, I see
Everything's the same
Here comes the rain
You left me standing

I should have guessed that you'd stand me up
Why did I even go, now
And I guess it goes to show
The snow may well thaw out
But it goes right down the drain
You left me, you left me, you left me, you left me

You left me standing in the rain
You left me standing in the rain
You left me standing in the rain

You left me standing in the rain
You left me standing in the rain
You left me standing in the rain

You left me standing in the rain
You left me standing in the rain
You left me standing in the rain
