Lyrics

I think that I'll go out tonight
'Cause I'm raining here inside
If I don't get out in the wet
I'll never get me dried
Since you left there's been a theft
And my heart's gone and died
I need to get out of my head
'Cause I'm raining here inside

My blue umbrella is no use
I'm raining here inside
Salt water flowing endlessly
Just adding to the tide
Since you've gone no light has shone
I'm drowning in my pride
Not a dry eye in the house
I'm raining here inside

You know that I'm too proud to beg
Won't call and ask you back
Perhaps we'd just get stuck again
Like a needle on our favorite track

My roof is just redundant now
I'm raining here inside
The cows are all set down in here
The weathermen have lied
Out on the street the August heat
Has got the world half-fried
A dry gin in the sun won't help

'Cause I'm raining here
I'm raining here inside

The weathergirl says it's raining so
we've got to play outside
