Lyrics The Outfield

The Outfield

Raintown Boys

The raintown boys are leaving today

Heading on out to the shoreline

The greytown boys are tired of this place

They're not coming back anymore

They're gonna find a new life in the city

Don't wanna live in black and white

'Cos nothing's gonna change the talkin's over

Too many wasted years gone by

The raintown boys ain't coming back to town no more

They've had enough of living in the past for sure

The sadtown girls are crying inside

Thoughts are out there in the darkness

They'd given their hearts to the boys in the past

Now it's so lonely without them

It's late at night but downtown in the city

They walk the streets - the lights turn red

A broken voice in their imagination

They can't believe the things she said

I can give you more than anyone can

Perfect strangers living in a new land

The raintown boys are so far away

Been living it up on the shore

No doubt in their minds they're gonna stay

There's nothing left to go home for

They've found a better life inside this city

Their fears are gone - their fortunes changed

Just like they were made for one another

The boy's won't ever be the same

The raintown boys ain't coming back to town no more

They've had enough of living in the past for sure

No more - no more - no more

No more - no more - no more
