Move closer, set my mind on fire 
taking over 
the world seems so alive 
the world seems so alive 
she slips into the night, and she is gone 
gone to set the score, gone into the town 
rain shining in her eyes 
her brother started school 
again today 
a thought to pass the time, 
to occupy my mind 
while i'm waiting for her 
down in the basement 
listening to the rain 
thinking things over 
i think it over again 
think it over again 
she slipped into the night, and she is gone 
gone to set the score, gone into the town 
rain shining in her eyes 
her brother started school 
again today 
a thought to pass the time, 
to occupy my mind 
while i'm waiting for her 
i'm riding it down 
listening to the rain 
she'll be here soon 
i lie back and drift away 
i lie back and drift away 
she slipped into the night, and she is gone 
gone to set the score, gone into the town 
rain shining in her eyes 
her brother started school 
again today 
a thought to pass the time, 
to occupy my mind 
while i'm waiting for her 
i'm feeling so alive 
feeling so real 
on this stormy night 
the rain is coming down 
rain like never before 
i've got some records on 
and some bottles of wine 
on this stormy night 
the rain is lashing down 
and i'm waiting for her
