I was thirsty   I thought you might pour me a drink   Forty days in the desert   Cause I needed time to think   I was lonely   I thought you might comfort me   Forty dreams of darkness   I thought would make me see         And after all our nervous Monday morning glances   And after all our dollar ninety-nine romances   And after you had failed to save me   The sky opened up and forgave me         And it rained   A fallen angel in the night   And it rained   A promise of sunlight   And it rained   A prayer to a lost king   And it rained   The answer to everything         Now I'm empty   Let the rain wash me down   Pretty soon the ice will melt   And the birds will be back in town   Now I'm movin'   But I got nowhere to go   Pretty soon you'll hear from me   Or see me at the show         And after all the times I spied on you undressing   And after all our tender Conoco caressing   And after you had failed to save me   The sky opened up and forgave me         And it rained etc.      Just one more Sunday that I had to see   That nobody's really what they seem to be   And it so hurts my pride   To get shut outside   And when I gave up all my high hopes for you   When I gave up all the things that I thought I knew   When I finally saw that nothing is true   I had nothing to say   And nothing to do...         And it rained etc.
