Lyrics

Raincoat (Heck /Thomson)

Used to be between us love was risky and alive
Night flowed in to morning like a never-ending wine
We were drunken drivers on a crazy lovers lane
But now we're only sober friends, Christ it ain't the same

I remember when it happened the flood was coming down
Rained all through the night I thought the world was gona drown
You were standing in the doorway it was seven days ago
Your face was dripping truths I didn't want to know

But when you said goodbye there was something you left behind

You left your raincoat (and there's no one inside)
You left your raincoat

I conjure up your face day after day
The more I think about it the more it fades away
I'm gripping onto something holding with my mind
I'm holding on to yesterday and the days gone by

But when you said goodbye there was something you left behind

You left your raincoat (and there's no one inside)
You left your raincoat

I'll take it outside in the pouring rain
leave it in a heap in the alley-way
Someone's gona find it, someone's gone take it
and save it for a rainy day.
