In the Rain

We cheat on our friends with rhyme and reason

As surely as the leaves change with the seasons

For love or money, or sometimes both

Let's hope this fire burns without smoke

In the garden; in the rain

You no longer loved him

I whispered your name

In the garden; in the rain

Swift, knowing looks

The rules of the game

Cupid's leering; let the game begin

He shoots the arrow, and our lives spin

Poison flows through our viper hearts

Put down our knives and raise a glass

(chorus)

Let the blinds hold in the night

Or let a candle be our only light

We whisper words, but are they true?

Let's be naá¯ve, me and you

(chorus)

In the rain, by the tower door

Said we would love forever

We lied, of course

In the rain, by the tower door

We'd never betray each other

We did, of course

In the rain
