A suitcase at the door open wide let the cold air come in then she asked me for a light 

Said she had some old business see an old friend or maybe make a new start 

But the words of her reason they changed with the season the truth burned in my heart 

It blew me away and I thought I'd go crazy 

Cause I knew even then I was caught 



Caught in the rain again 

I pray to the heavens to defend me 

I'm caught in the rain 

Why's it seem like more rain that they send me 



So I listen to the wind for the answer 

Time hangs heavy on y face 

Run from the storm that's on it's way 

Till I find there is no place no person no thing I can run to 

No shelter I can gain from the rain 

Yes I know this time it's too late 



Chorus 



And the rain comes down so silently 

And time stand's still like it's in front of me 

And the years turn to the rain 

And the silence kills me 



Now in this one horse town bar 

I sing in the back room in the December night 

Here she comes through the doorway 

With a blustering wind that's too cold to forget 

She looked like she knew me the heat shot through me melted me down 

So we sat and talked about the old days or the new things that we found 

We talked about the days when we were so much younger and innocent 

We saw it plain we were just caught in the rain 



Chorus
