portland rain

Lyrics

i stand out breaking in the portland rain, i see the end there in your eyes as i watch you drive away, i walk back blind into my cold dreamhouse, and i think about the damage, i put the big light out, i sit down smoking on my basement floor, i hear footsteps up above me, they are right outside my front door, the only place that i want to be, is watching you move up on top of me, the only sound that i want to hear, is the rain against my window as you whisper in my ear, baby, you know i love it when you call me baby, i go upstairs and find my twelve-year-old, she's got tears running down her face, sitting sad at my piano, she sings soft words from that old beatles song, and i think about my yesterday and all the things i did wrong, the only place that i want to be, is watching you sweet dream in bed right next to me, the only sound that i want to hear, is the rain against my window as i pull you near, don't give up on me, baby, can't you you see?, we could make this be the way it used to be, don't give up on me, i wish i could make you see, that i am changing everyday, trying to build a better me, we could make this be the way it's supposed to be, don't give up on me, i stand out in the rain where i watched you drive away, i never thought i would live to see, this fucked-up day, i stand out in the rain in the middle of the night, i wish that it could wash away the beast inside, the only thing i want to do is kiss you when i am coming deep inside of you, the only sound that i want to hear, is the rain against my window as i hold you, don't give up on me, oh baby, can't you see?, we could make this be the way it used to be, don't give up on me, i wish i could make you see that i am changing everyday, trying to build a better me, we could make this be the way it's supposed to be, don't give up on me
