Peppermint raindrops filling teacups
Tears in our coffee, sugar in bed
The shoes of her sister spawned the blister
And the streets are soaking wet
Sooner or later gonna date her
Check out the rainy avenues
I'm gonna tell her to buy an umbrella
Wet from her head down to her toes

And if she wants to stay with me
We will get dry it's plain to see
The weather won't get me not again
She talks to the rain

Gossip and cheap talk till you sleepwalk
Knowing you're not the only one
Letters and phonecalls while the rain falls
Dating half a town for fun
Sparks in her green eyes telling sweet lies
I'm counting the promises she makes
It's not what it seems now only a dream now
She's waiting for every cloud to break

But if she wants to stay with me
We will get dry it's plain to see
If only someone could explain
Why she talks to the rain

I might catch a cold get twice as wet
While I'm walking down her lane
The shower won't be over yet
So I'll ask in vain
Why she talks to the rain

But if she wants to stay with me
We will get dry it's plain to see
Waiting for sounds on the windowpane
She talks to the rain
