Move closer, set my mind on fire

Taking over, the world seems so alive

The world seems so alive

She slips into the night, and she is gone

Gone to settle the score, gone into the town

Rain shining in her eyes

Her brother started school

Again today, a thought to pass the time

To occupy my mind, while I'm waiting for her

Down in the basement, listening to the rain

Thinking things over. I think it over again

I think it over again

She slips into the night, and she was gone

Gone to settle the score, gone into the town

Rain shining in her eyes

Her brother started school

Again today, a thought to pass the time

To occupy my mind, while I'm waiting for her

I'm riding it down, listen to the rain

She'll be here soon, I lie back and drift away

I lie back and drift away.

She slips into the night, and she was gone

Gone to settle the score, gone into the town

Rain shining in her eyes

Her brother started school

Again today, a thought to pass the time

To occupy my mind, while I'm waiting for her

I'm feeling so alive, feeling so real

On a stormy night, the rain is coming down

Rain like never before

I've got some records on, some bottles of wine

On a stormy night, the rain is lashing down

And I'm waiting for her
