Hunter - Rain lyrics

Billy said this town is dying
It's dying just to be like me
He was fighting everything in sight
Died when he was 23

I used to meet him down at his cafe
He had one eye on the door
And the other on the writing on the wall
He'd get restless and angry
And we'd all laugh

'Cause we weren't really scared
We was his friends
He wouldn't hurt us at all
And all he'd say was rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain we gotta leave this town

And glover was a dancer
Imitating eddie cochran by the jukebox
In the corner of the room 'Til he was lost

Barry 'n me, we used to escape
Playing i go ape
Wearing italian clothes drinking cider
Talking in the rain
Hey babe, come over here, let
Me buy you a beer, what's your name
She said "boy, it doesn't really matter
Don't you see?

You ain't what i want, you ain't what i need
You ain't what i fancy
You ain't what i dream of
'n i'd silently leave

Rain, rain, rain rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain rain, rain, rain
I gotta leave this place

My history is a cop-out
Somewhere in the dark i got scared 'cause
I knew i was gonna loose
You know that feeling you get in your guts
All that frustration when you know
You're going nuts you gotta make a move
There was billy and glover and pacer
And taylor and valerie and barry
I remember what he said about that town
He said "i went to london once, came back

Wiped the tears from my eyes
Looked out the window
And it was still pouring down
More of that rain, rain, rain

Rain, rain, rain rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain"

I'm gonna get a train
Never coming back again
'cause if i did it would be the same
Boy, you really messed up my brain

All of that rain rain rain rain rain rain
Rain rain rain rain rain rain

Take your washing off the line
Take your washing off the line
Take your washing off the line
Take the washing off the line
It's gonna rain it's gonna rain
