Written by: Patti Scialfa

The night is falling
Under the vesper bells lonely chime
And I ain't nobody's valentine
But I ain't sorry for wanting the things
That you cannot give
And if you want me to walk away
Give me something I can walk away with
Talk to me like the rain baby
Talk to me like the rain
And I will lie here and listen

All of those promises
They're held like tender dreams
Inside our hands and they're all
Just waiting there for our command
Now I don't want to talk to no one darlin'
I don't want the sun to shine
I'll just lie inside this darkness baby
Until you are mine
Talk to me like the rain baby
Talk to me like the rain
And I will lie here and listen

Yesterdays empires they are all vanishing
And without you those new worlds darlin'
They don't mean a thing
Talk to me like the rain baby
Talk to me like the rain
Talk to me like the rain darlin'
Talk to me like the rain
And I will lie here and listen
