It was raining today

And it reminded me of Washington

That place I used to dwell

When rain would fall in sheets to cleanse the grimy streets

It was raining today

And it made me think of you

When we used to laugh and dance beneath the falling sky

It was raining today

And I remembered everything

Everything I took for granted that slipped so subtly through my fingertips

My dreams that washed down the drain with the ever falling rain

Watching them fade away

I could only think of you

In that place I used to dwell

Outside in the rain
