It`s raining today
and I`m just about to forget the train window girl
That wonderful day we met
She smiles through the smoke from my cigarette
It`s raining today
But once there was summer and you
And dark little rooms
And sleep in late afternoons
Those moments descend on my windowpane
I`ve hung around here too long
Listenin` to the old landlady`s hard-luck stories
You out of me me out of you
We go like lovers
To replace the empty space
Repeat our dreams to someone new
It`s raining today
And I watch the cellophane streets
No hang-ups for me
`Cause hang-ups need company
The street corner girl`s a cold trembling leaf
It`s raining today
It`s raining today
