I feel like rain and every man I meet
Is subjected to me
The cloudburst of emotion and pain
A flash flood of heartbreak and sorrow
I fall until I land in their hearts
All drenched in regret
Their clothes soaked through
Suddenly, with the feeling of me
I silently pour in
With baggage that hails down
Denting and cratering them
Until the levee breaks
A deluge of myself
Until all they can think about
When a storm rolls through
Is how much it reminds them of me.

I feel like rain and every man I meet
Is subjected to me
The cloudburst of emotion and pain
A flash flood of heartbreak and sorrow
I fall until I land in their hearts
All drenched in regret
Their clothes soaked through
Suddenly, with the feeling of me
I silently pour in
With baggage that hails down
Denting and cratering them
Until the levee breaks
A deluge of myself
Until all they can think about
When a storm rolls through
Is how much it reminds them of me.
