Gentle rain starts falling as I walk the streets
Memories of you are burning so clear
How your body felt when I would hold you
We were so close, quiet as a tear
So close, quiet as a falling tear
Gentle rain my world of peace and quiet
Then thoughts and missing you appear
Your vivid beauty, dancing in my mind’s eye
You’re a vision, quiet as a tear
You’re a vision, quiet as a falling tear
My God how I want you back
I’d drop to my knees, and beg you to stay
But at that moment, I did nothing
I let my pride stand in the way
Gentle rain, I’m still living with your good-bye
Tried playing cool, mister cavalier
But when you left, you sliced me wide open
I stood silent, quiet as a tear
I stood silent, quiet as a falling tear
