Yesterday I heard the rain,
|
whispering your name,
|
asking where you'd gone . . .
|
|
It fell softly from the clouds
|
on the silent crowds,
|
as I wandered on . . .
|
|
Out of doorways
|
black umbrellas came to pursue me,
|
Faceless people as they passed
|
were looking through me,
|
no one knew me . . .
|
|
Yesterday I shut my eyes,
|
face-up to the skies,
|
drinkin' in the rain . . .
|
|
But your image still was there
|
floating in the air,
|
brighter than a flame . . .
|
|
Yesterday I saw a city,
|
full of shadows without pity,
|
and I heard the steady rain,
|
whispering your name,
|
Whispering your name . . .

Yesterday I saw a city,

and I heard the steady rain,

whispering your name,
|
whispering your name,
|
whispering your name . . .
