Here in my mind the sky looks the same

On every day you loved me

When we started home it started to rain

You put your coat around me

We stood there in the road

You held me so close

But did you ever let go

Down came the rain

Lightning and thunder

We tried in vain

To hold on to each other

Winds of change blew you away from me

Right here right now, I feel it on my skin

The bitter sting of what we could've been

Just when our love was like a burning flame

Down came the rain

In through the window I see her with you

I'm soaked to the skin, you're warm and dry

I guess the storm is over for you

But look at the tears here in my eyes

I just stood there like a ghost

As you held her so close

And as I let you go

Down came the rain

Lightning and thunder

We tried in vain

To hold on to each other

Winds of change blew you away from me

Love like this changes who you are

Every kiss you gave me is a scar

Just when our love was like a burning flame

Down came the rain

All I need is to move on fast

But all I want is to have you back

And it just keeps falling

Down came the rain

Lightning and thunder

We tried in vain

To hold on to each other

Winds of change blew you away from me

Right here right now, I feel it on my skin

The bitter sting of what we could've been

Just when our love was like a burning flame

Down came the rain

Down came the rain
