It keeps rainin' down the tear stained face of this lonely town
|
And I drown
|
And I keep reachin' for one good reason why you said goodbye
|
Turn around
|
|
Oh, you're leaving me in this empty state
|
And all I see are dark clouds as you drive away
|
|
Mississippi's cryin', baby, Mississippi's sad
|
I think we just figured out you ain't coming back
|
The sky can see you leavin' and it can't hold back the tears
|
It's pouring down and my heart thinks it's dying
|
Mississippi's cryin'
|
|
Now he keeps looking for headlights shining in this driveway
|
But they don't shine
|
And I keep hopin' this crazy storm will drive you home
|
But not this time
|
|
Oh, my only wish is to change the weather
|
Are you coming back? Or is it gonna rain forever?
|
|
Mississippi's cryin', baby, Mississippi's sad
|
I think we just figured out you ain't coming back
|
The sky can see you leavin' and it can't hold back the tears
|
It's pouring down and my heart thinks it's dying
|
Mississippi's cryin', Mississippi's cryin'
|
|
Where you going, baby?
|
What's in Tennessee?
|
You never said a word about Memphis
|
So who is she?
|
|
It keeps raining down the tear stained face of this lonely town
|
And I drown
|
|
Mississippi's cryin', baby, Mississippi's sad
|
I think we just figured out you ain't coming back
|
The sky can see you leavin' and it can't hold back the tears
|
It's pouring down and my heart thinks it's dying
|
Mississippi's cryin', Mississippi's cryin'
|
