Track Insight / Lyrics
I'm just a small-sake courier, weary of my feet
Carrying secrets, late at night, the city's midnight eat
My compass friends say I've strayed far from home
Beneath an awning, I leave my load, alone
The neon signs fade to blue and dim
As drops grow fat, patter against the street within
I'm chasing tales of love, of far-off places
But now they seem so distant, far from these familiar faces
Oh, the rain, the rain, it rinses all my fears
In the droplets rolling down, I see your tears
Oh, my heart beats fast, this midnight air
With you, my love, wherever you are
I roam the damp streets, hands digging deep
Into my pockets, searching for a heat to keep
Inside the laundromat, its 24 hour hum
Hints of soap and steam, a brief warm succor come
The neon signs fade to blue and dim
As drops grow fat, patter against the street within
I'm chasing tales of love, of far-off places
But now they seem so distant, far from these familiar faces
Oh, the rain, the rain, it rinses all my fears
In the droplets rolling down, I see your tears
Oh, my heart beats fast, this midnight air
With you, my love, wherever you are
Perhaps someday, my heart will find its way home
To a love as steady as the rain that I've known
Until then, I'll keep on walking rain-soaked streets
In search of you, in my dreams, in every beat
Oh, the rain, the rain, it rinses all my fears
In the droplets rolling down, I see your tears
Oh, my heart beats fast, this midnight air
With you, my love, wherever you are
Raindrops fall like tears on pavement dry
City lights reflect, shimmering in the sky
