Caught In The Rain (Sexton Martin)

In a rusted red Chevy with a heart full of glory She left that night A suitcase at the door open wide let the cold air come in And then she asked me for a light Said she had some old business see an old friend Or maybe make a new start But the words of her reason they changed with the season And the truth burned in my heart It blew me away and I thought I'd go crazy 'Cause I knew even then I was caught I'm caught in the rain again I pray to the Heavens to defend me I'm caught in the rain Why's it seem like more rain that they send me? So I listen to the wind for the answer Time hangs heavy on my face I run from the storm that's on it's way Until I find there is no place No person, no thing I can run to, no shelter I can gain from the rain Yes I know this time it's too late, now 'Cause I'm caught in the rain again And I pray to the Heavens to defend me I'm caught in the rain Why's it seem like more rain that they send me? And they send me And the rain comes down so silently And time stand's still like it's in front of me And the years turn to the rain And this silence kills me So now in this one horse town bar I sing in the back room in the December night Here she comes through the doorway With a blustering wind that's too cold to forget She looks like she knew me The heat shot through me, melted me down So we sat and talked about the old days Or any new things that we found Talked about the days when we were so much younger and innocent We saw it plain, we were just caught in the rain We're caught in the rain again I pray to the Heavens to defend me Caught in the rain Why's it seem like more rain that they send me? I'm out here on my knees And my love knows I've been trying Still I'm caught in the rain on these old fool ideas I'm relying So I guess she gets me the rain again
