Everclear - Portland Rain lyrics
[Everclear - 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 dream house
And I think about the damage
As I put the big light out
I sit down smoking on my basement floor
I hear footsteps up above me
And they're 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 runnin' 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, whoa
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 ooh, don't give up on me
Na, na na, na, na
Na, na na, na, na
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'm 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, whoa
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 (Oh, yeah)
Don't give up on me (Oh, oh)
Don't give up on me (Oh, whoa)
Don't give up on me, whoa
I see the end there in your eyes
As I watch you drive away
I walk back blind into my cold dream house
And I think about the damage
As I put the big light out
I sit down smoking on my basement floor
I hear footsteps up above me
And they're 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 runnin' 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, whoa
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 ooh, don't give up on me
Na, na na, na, na
Na, na na, na, na

Where I watched you drive away
I never thought I would live
