Awoke today, felt your side of the bed;
The covers were still warm where you been layin
You were gone, oh gone, my heart was filled with dread;
You might not be sleeping here again
But its all right cause I love you, and thats not going to change
Run me around and make me hurt again and again
But Ill still sing you love songs, written in the letters of your name
The rain is gonna come, oh it surely looks like rain

Did you ever waken to the sound of street cats making love?
You guess from the cries you were listening to a fight
Well you know, oh know, haste is the last thing theyre thinking of
You know theyre only tryin to make it thru the night

I only want to hold you, I dont want to tie you down
Or fit you in the lines I mightve drawn
Its just that i, oh i, have gotten used to havin you around
The landscape would be empty, if you were gone;
But its all right cause I love you, and thats not going to change
Run me around and make me hurt again and again
But Ill still sing you love songs, written in the letter of your name
The rain is gonna come, oh it surely looks like rain
