[Lyrics]
In these days with the world getting colder
She spends more time sleeping over
Than I planned.
Tonight we're gonna order in
Drinking wine and watching CNN
It's dark I know, but then again
It's the brightest thing I've got.
When I'm covered in the rain, rain
When I'm covered in the rain, rain, rain, rain
From fireworks to fireplaces
Summer stole what fall replaces
And there were people watching all the people
People watching us right back now.
Standing by the missing signs
At the CVS by the checkout line
She puts her crying hands in mine
Cause she's the brightest thing I've got.
When I'm covered in the rain, rain
When I'm covered in the rain, rain, rain, rain
Oh I'm covered in the rain
Oh I'm covered in the rain
Oh I'm covered in the rain
Oh no no oh no no no
And come December Lydia left
She mentions something bout it being for the best
And I can't say I disagree, it's killing me
And now I'm standing facing West
Tracing my fingers around her silhouette
I haven't gotten used to yet
But it's the brightest thing I got.
When I'm covered in the rain, yeah rain
When I'm covered in the rain, rain, rain, rain
