The second set of lyrics I ever wrote. It came from a time where Staind was in the forefront of my music, and it's evident in the word choice.
You know that cafe on Main Street...
That’s where I’m sitting as we speak...
This flood of memories at its peak...
I pay and leave but still don’t speak...
The rain is coming down in sheets...
And cars go hissing down the street...
Passing strangers I don’t meet...
I just keep walking down this street...
The rain is rolling down my face
I wish you were with me in this place
To kiss those lips upon your face
And let you hear this so far away…
My love…so far away…
I tell myself you’re miles away from here...
But that doesn’t send this heartache away I fear...
The rain is mixing with my tears...
It feels like you’ve been gone for years...
Headlights sweep as someone steers...
A moonless night with pools like mirrors...
The clouds have closed and left me here...
Our fate is sealed so your not here...
And rain is rolling down my face
I wish you were with me in this place
To kiss those lips upon your face
God let her hear this so far away…
My love…so far away…
And rain is rolling down my face
I want you with me in this place
Caress those lips upon your face
So let you hear this so far away…
My love…so far away…
