Lyrics
Maybe all I needed was a princess I could save.
And maybe all you needed was a friend.
And maybe all we had was a big misunderstanding
and a lot of fun in bed.
When I first met you, you were living in your car.
You?d left a husband in a mansion.
Glamorous gypsy, disowned by family,
you wanted more than their Texas eyes could see.
Chorus:
But you didn?t lie when you said that you were crazy.
But I still wanted you to move right in.
Cuz watchin? you was better than any movie.
You were like, you were like the rain.
Now I want to call you and hear you apologize
for every time you slammed a door on me.
But I?m not that optimistic and I?m not that masochistic
and sometimes I like being free.
Chorus:
But you didn?t lie when you said that you were crazy.
And I didn?t care if I was cavin? in.
Cuz watchin? you was better than a movie.
You were like, you were like the rain.
And whatever I saw in your eyes
can still sneak up and take me by surprise.
I throw a flour tortilla on the burner flame.
And the smoke blows your memory over me.
Cuz you taught me that trick
and you taught me that love
comes and goes like a breeze.
Chorus:
But you didn?t lie when you said that you were crazy.
But I didn?t think it mattered where we?d been.
Now I?m growin? out my hair and watchin? movies.
You were like, you were like the rain.
