Neon lights outside my pool hall

Rain is coming down in spoonfulls

Mixes in with tears from my eyes

I've been standing here for hours



Paper bag for my umbrella

Won't you come back to your soggy fella

Watching people passing by me

I got nowhere else to go



And I know you could be miles from me

Just a sailing through these flooded streets

I wash the sin right off my skin

And you will have me back again



Diesel bus fumes got me choking

Police man standing above me poking

Wake up from my sidewalk Hilton

I got nowhere else to go



Neon sport coat gets me groovin'

Your long gone daddy is slowly moving

A wrinkled picture in my wallet

I could stare at you for hours



And I know you could be miles from me

Just a sailing through these flooded streets

I wash the sin right off my skin

And you will have me back again



And I'll be floating up to heaven

With dice in my hands rolling sevens

Lost in your arms

And salvation will be ours

Neon lights outside my pool hall

Rain is coming down in spoonfulls

Mixes in with tears from my eyes

I've been standing here for hours
