“In The Rain”
A hundred drops of rain hit the ground
At the same ****** time that I knew I must go back
Standing alone on the street where I found you
Getting wet from the rain falling from the black
It was a night in springtime and I came back to you
Holding my jacket up above to keep you from the rain
Underneath in the darkness I knew what to do
I kissed you; and a hundred times again

It was a hundred drops of rain that bounced off our soaking skin
Standing in the moonlight, standing for who knows when
And we stayed together, and the night was perfectly still for me
As those hundred drops of rain stopped and time moved so slowly

A hundred drops of rain fell from the sky
And I knew time had stood still when my heart did too
And we fell in love, but to learn how to fly
So I fell down deep, and I fall to be with you
On the moonlit street, in the darkness of the night
We kissed for the first time, and time had stopped
We embraced in the shadows, we embraced in the moonlight
Wet from the fall of a hundred rain drops
