Our Kind of
Rain
Everybody keeps on talking
Saying how it never couldve been
Then I lie and say Im glad that youre gone
I can shed my skin
Still the days are getting better
The cops been leaving me alone
Still sometimes I fell a million years old
Since youve gone home
They never had our kind of love
They never listened for a train
They never had our kind of sun, our moon, our stars
They never had our kind of rain
Its getting lonely bumming quarters
With you it all became a ballet
Still it aint no fun stealing for one
At the Circle-K
And when I go down to the river
I hear your laugh in the calliope
What a world of wonder under the wharves
Just you and me
Chorus
Our kind of rain dont fall round here
Our kind of rain dont fall like tears
Our kind of rain dont fall this side of yesterday
Or last year
And there aint nothing thats surprising
You were too evil for the street
I used to think that you could jump off the moon
And land on your feet
And when you go down to Decatur
Have a sit down in the sun
Take a pull cause spring is finally here
And youre undone
