I wake up in a sweat can't sleep I'm soaking wet

I toss and turn the whole night through

I keep going in and out of time

I just can't seem to bear

my world without you there

You've gone back to the life you knew

but somehow I just can't get back to mine



When you went away nothing I could say

could ever bring you back to me

Your lipstick cherry red the hours in my bed

still haunt my memory



Chorus:

A kiss in the rain on a dark afternoon

a heart so in pain 'cos love came too soon

A taste of her lips still lingers in vain

a sad souvenier of a kiss in the rain



He could offer more than long walks on the shore

My love for you was not enough

Girl I couldn't keep the flame alive

Still when I close my eyes it's you I visualise

though I try to shout it out

Don't you know these feelings still survive



Was it just a fling a temporary thing

I find the letters that you wrote

And though I set you free you're still a part of me

the spell can not be broke



Chorus:

A kiss in the rain on a dark afternoon

a heart so in pain 'cos love came too soon

A taste of her lips still lingers in vain

a sad souvenier of a kiss in the rain
