lyrics

Staring Out At The Rain

There's a big, big shadow in the sky where I let you leave me
There's a hidden memory in my eye that I can't let go
There's a road that leads us backwards, but you won't believe me
I wanna swing by all those places that I used to love and know

Someone keeps laughing at me
I used to think that things were so simple
Something keeps pecking at me
'Reminds me of all this pointless drivel...

Chin up baby you're ok you know
You've got friends and some places to go
You got a got a good body and you got a good brain
So why you staring out at the rain?

There's a big, big puddle and it's full of oil and rainbows
There's a public footpath and it's segregating the estate
There's a hidden message which appears every time the wind blows
I wanna sing a song of boredom cos it seems I've nothing left to hate

Someone keeps laughing at me
I can't tell if it's dark or romantic
Something keeps pecking at me
'Reminds me of all of the things I've promised...

Chin up baby you're ok you know
You've got friends and some places to go
You got a got a good body and you got a good brain
So why you staring out at the rain?

If I grab the hammer and smash the glass
Will it destroy my imagination?
Pull the cord and stop the train
Does it mean I will see clearly again?...

Why you staring out at the rain?
