Painted Bells

[00:12.02] Winding down the Drury Lane
[00:18.12] I fall with the evening rain
[00:24.08] My thoughts with the water flow
[00:30.18] Like steam rising off the road
[00:34.18]
[00:35.48] Passers-by watch their step
[00:41.98] To see that they don't get wet
[00:47.78] And I'll just sit beneath this tree
[00:51.18] Let the drops fall all over me
[00:54.28] And watch the city lights flick on
[00:58.58]
[01:02.78] The crowds collide just out of my reach
[01:09.48] The taxi's lights flash up and down the street
[01:14.98] I sit and watch the faces go by
[01:21.18] I don't wonder where to or why
[01:26.38] Cause it's me, the rain, my warm dark pain
[01:32.78] Alone at ease and nowhere at all
[01:38.78] My thoughts just drift on back to you
[01:41.98] It seems you're here, so it must be true
[01:45.08] We never parted, you never went away
[01:50.08]
[01:53.88] So I order up another glass
[02:00.28] Not to let the moment pass
[02:06.48] Turning around in love with you
[02:12.48] Oh, I know you loved me too
[02:17.48] And it's always been this way
[02:23.48]
[02:26.78] Here sitting in my wet cafe
[02:33.08] I catch a spark across the way
[02:39.08] A string of tiny painted bells
[02:44.98] Seem to have a tale to tell
[02:50.68] A string of tiny painted bells
[02:56.58] On someone that I once knew well
[03:02.48] Is all that's left, the rest's not true
[03:05.98] I smile, I see it's really you
[03:09.08] The rain will go, and you will too
[03:13.98]
[03:17.58] And I order up another glass
[03:24.08] Not to let the moment pass
[03:29.18] Turning around in love with you
[03:35.58] Oh, it got too hard to do
[03:40.98] And it's always been this way
[03:46.78] Yes, it's always been this way
[03:53.68]
