Record Tracklist

  1. Rainy Day Lover -:-- / -:--

Timing is everything when love brings to the table an offering
Like when you came, I was willing but unable
I kept you around in my mind if, by occasion
This current affair ran dry
It sure enough left me high

And so I’ve been
Saving your love for
Saving your love for
Saving your love for a rainy day
And now that we’re in for a downpour
There’s one thing I’m hoping for
The sky’ll keep raining for days and days, oh yeah

So tell me you’ll come over and we’ll hide out undercover
Drinking all the sweet things made for rainy day lovers
If waiting can kill you, then death, please pass me over
It’s thunder and lightning time
I ain’t gonna miss this ride

Because I’ve been
Saving your love for
Saving your love for
Saving your love for a rainy day
And now that we’re in for a downpour
There’s one thing I’m hoping for
The sky’ll keep raining for days and days, oh yeah

If waiting can kill you, then death, please pass me over
It’s thunder and lightning and loving like dying
We’re under the sky and the storms are colliding, oh yeah

And I’ve been
Saving your love for
Saving your love for
Saving your love for a rainy day
And now that we’re in for a downpour
There’s one thing I’m hoping for
The sky’ll keep raining for days and days, oh yeah
The sky’ll keep raining for days and days and days and days
Oh, let it keep raining for days and days and days and days
Days and days and days and days
Days and days and days and days
