Standing In The Rain Lyrics

STANDING IN THE RAIN -- HUSKER DU

Looking outside my window, all I see is grey
I'm watching the clouds roll by every day
We make a reservation, you say you'll be on time
I say I might be a little late
Well, I pull it together and brush my teeth, comb my hair
I stop to think and I can see you there
I think of the times you've waited just for me to care
I care about you

Checking the clock inside the room we call our own
I see that I'm late, I should get going
Hop on a local transit, spending all my change
But I can still hear the telephone
Well, I wanna go back but I'm halfway to the place where we will meet
And I'm half dead on my feet
And once I get there I see everything's the same
Here comes the rain
You left me standing

I should have guessed that you'd stand me up
Why did I even go now
And I guess it goes to show
The snow may well thaw out but it goes right down the drain
You left me, you left me, you left me, you left me
You left me standing in the rain
