I remember when we met
Before I was invisible
I thought I'd play it hard to get
Pretend I'm unapproachable
But somebody else came along and
Took all the chances that I missed
Stuck on the sideline I keep thinking 'there she goes'

Falling like rain
No, I don't get to hold her tonight
Falling like rain
I was pushed to the back of the line
'Cause even though I need her love and crave her touch
I guess I wasn't fast enough
She's falling like rain
Just not for me
Not for me, no, no

Why I took the longest road
I'll have to plead insanity
It's like my pride put on a show
And didn't sell a single seat
While I was talking in riddles
Somebody else made perfect sense
Stuck on the outside I keep thinking 'there she goes'

Falling like rain
No, I don't get to hold her tonight
Falling like rain
I was pushed to the back of the line
'Cause even though I need her love and crave her touch
I guess I wasn't fast enough
She's falling like rain
Just not for me
Just not for me

What do you do, what do you say
When the best thing has passed you by?
Where do you go, how do you know
If she'll come back another time?

(She's falling like rain)
Falling like rain
(She's falling like rain)
Ooh oh oh
(She's falling like rain)
Falling like rain
(She's falling)
She's falling
(She's falling like)
Rain
(No I don't get to hold her tonight)
Won't get to hold her
(Falling like rain)
Falling like rain
(I was pushed to the back of the line)
Pushed to the back of the line
(Cause even though I need her love)
Need her love
(And crave her touch)
I guess I wasn't fast enough
(She's falling like rain)
Just not for me
She's falling like rain
