Don't slam the door on your way out

Don't leave without saying goodbye

Another long distance night alone

You leave me wanting, always leave me wanting more

Last word today, coming home to stay?

Wouldn't that be nice, for awhile?



But now my take-out food is growing cold

And the candle's burned a hole in the floor

And I'm still waiting for the ring of the phone



CHORUS

I'm all alone

And it's another rainy night, without you

Guess I'll leave the light on for you

It's just another rainy night without you



Listen, there's a foghorn blowing from the coast tornight

Remember making love in the rain?

Strange how laughter looks like crying with no sound

Raindrops taste like tears, without the pain

I'm not much without you, can't leave if I wanted to

Maybe that's why you stay around



But tonight I'll sit here tending the fire

and pace the floor one hundred times in an hour

And check the voice-mail for a message you've called



CHORUS



Waiting by the phone, alone

And it's another rainy night without you



Hate the sound of the closing door

And your footseps walking away



But now my takeout food is growing cold

and the candle's burned a hole in the floor

and I'm still waiting for the ring of the phone



CHORUS
