(Barbara Dickson/Charlie Dore)
Dark night, the city sleeps
It turns it back beneath the sheets
Midnight 'till 4 a.m.
I wait until you're home again
I make investigations
Somebody told me there's bad news about love
So what I heard you say
I'm not to blame and anyway
Who cares what's on your mind
You search for clues you'll never find
You're like a cheap detective
Caught in the act of self-deception
You've got a case that no-one will try
CHORUS :
And then the picture fades
Everything turns to grey
Open my eyes, the lies won't go away
And in my heart I know it's raining again today
Outside I wait and see
She's there with you, where I should be
Inside the pain I feel
Is burning hot and cold as steel
I see the way you hold her
Brushing your lips against her shoulder
I wanna shout why can't it be me?
CHORUS
Who is this crazy stranger that's inside of me
Feeds herself upon suspicion
Breathing hate for ammunition
Look at me now, you've thrown me away
CHORUS
It's raining again today
