Story Behind The Song

A nondescript conceptualization of anyone (me) anywhere (here) being miserable about anything (women, money, failure, booze, jail etc...)

Song Description

This is the gloomy song playing in the background as the actor gazes forlornly out the rain spattered window...

Lyrics

Rain

Now it doesn?t matter where or when it all happened?
Who?s to blame or how it all came to pass.
It could?ve been a tale of romance, regret or betrayal?
or maybe it was simply just to good to last.
And now you?re standing in a second story window,
and rain pelts the traffic below?
And you?re thinking back to how wonderful it all used to be?
And how you?re future?s looking so dark and cold.

And the rain streaks that second floor window;
And the streetlights look faded and grey?
And your heart is allowed to feel heavy?
Let the dirty water wash your sins away?
And the faces look so dull and distant;
Their voices, and even their laughter echoes your pain?
But somehow the water justifies your misery,
?cause when you?re down ? all you want to see is rain.

Now the wind rose up late in the evening,
And the clouds blew in heavy and low;
And the rain started just before sunrise?
And the world was wet and grey when you awoke.
So you dug out all of your old forgotten records;
And you sit back and gaze at the sky?
A tenor saxophone blows lonely and smoky?
All you?ve got to do in the world is stay dry.
