We met along the back streets where we would not be seen
|
Our bodies full of passion, with love our only dream
|
The neon flashed in our hotel room, but I never complained
|
Until the night you left me standing in the rain
|
|
I wondered what had happened, afraid to call your home
|
So I spent the night in the local bar, but I had to drink alone
|
I must have gotten in a fight, 'cause I woke up bleeding with pain
|
I had the midnight sun with you
|
Now I'm standing in the rain
|
Standing in the rain
|
|
Another woman answered when I called you in the morning
|
The sound of her voice came without a warning
|
The sun was coming up, but inside my soul was storming
|
I guess there are some promises you just can't keep
|
|
I'm still wandering down those back streets
|
But with a different point of view
|
'Cause I lost everything I had when I bet it all on you
|
I try not to think about it, or else I'll go insane
|
Sometimes I cry, wondering why you left me standing in the rain
|
Standing in the rain
|
Why did you leave me standing
|
Standing in the rain
|
