Streetlights paint the falling rain
On my lonely window pane
Neon colors bleed and blur
A melancholy, soft demur
Distant sirens softly cry
As the empty hours fly
City sleeps, but I'm awake
Lost in thoughts I can't escape
Watching patterns raindrops make
For goodness sake, for goodness sake
Echoes in the night landscape
Just the city lights and rain take shape
Headlights carve through glistening streets
Lonely rhythms, muted beats
Faces pass, unknown and brief
Carrying their joy and grief
Is there someone else like me
Staring out, who cannot flee?
City sleeps, but I'm awake
Lost in thoughts I can't escape
Watching patterns raindrops make
For goodness sake, for goodness sake
Echoes in the night landscape
Just the city lights and rain take shape
There's a beauty in the grey
Washing all the dirt away
A quiet solace in the sound
City sleeps, but I'm awake
Lost in thoughts I can't escape
Watching patterns raindrops make
For goodness sake, for goodness sake
Echoes in the night landscape
Just the city lights and rain take shape
Falling down... the rain...
