I'm sitting on the curb outside our house
The sun's coming up and my mind is filled with all kindsa doubt
The clouds hang low
Lost my keys so I can't get in
But I don't want to wake you up 'cause I know you need your sleep
You work too hard
I can smell the rain sneaking up on me and I guess it serves me right
Through all the years we've shared it's been right there by our side
Pouring down
Oh didn't it rain when I said I'd keep you safe from harm
And when I promised to take you away but only took you apart
Oh didn't it rain when I flushed our dreams down the drain on a flip of a card
And when the doctor sat us down to explain our options and I cried all the way to the car
My legs only carried me this far
Lean my back against the neighbour's beat-up family car
I used to own
A busted hand, a torn up shirt
I know I promised not to put you through this kinda hurt
But I play my part
I spent our summers planning for September but it never came to nothing at all
October nights I'd lay awake just listening to the rain fall
On the roof
