you left on a saturday afternoon as if the summer rains divined it
I watched you from my driveway turn your headlights on
and make your way into the dusking day
while I stood behind nightblinded
I'm steady like a statue with a face of clay
in vain in rain is it my fate to wait and waste away?
I need your space to need my room I want to fall asleep inside it
wake up to the sounds of tomorrow morning sighs
and kiss the eyes that are kissing mine
'cause they need nothing else outside us
and the gentle streams of tears down the window pane
but all in vain patient days of rain I've lain awake
alone I dream of rainy days awaste in Spain
I'm wide awake in dreams of Spain and summer rain
you can turn off the lights pull down the blinds
but some things you can't hide
it's another sleepless night with you on my mind
and the leaves that whisper melodies into the rose and grey twilight
drifting to the drone of a lazing sunday morning rain
in vain I've lain patient and awake
in love I dream of rainy days awaste in Spain
I'm wide awake in dreams of Spain and summer rain
where did you go to sleep off sorrow?
my darling please sing to me your sweet lullagoodbye
