You're lonely too

The car went silent

I coasted to the side

I had that sickening feeling

I couldn't fix it this time

 

I managed to find a phone

Back then it was only a dime

The ringing over and over

gave me another sickening feeling

that I was wasting my time

 

So it began to rain

That sickening feeling

swept in that

I was going to get wet

 

So undecided

What to do next ?

So far from home

I began to fume and fret

 

No one to help

No where to go

No was the answer

to every question met

 

So the rain turned

to snow

On the streets

it became slush

All my spirits

had been crushed

 

I needed a girl in a flat bed ford to slow down and take a look at me

Someone to give me shelter from the storm

Only wanting to know

Who'll stop the rain

 

Someone who was as lonely as me
