lyrics

Well pardon me I'm sitting under ashen skies
Wondering what the hell is going on
I do my best, it's never good enough for her
She loves to tell me where I went wrong

I got a whole weather system following me
It started sunny now it's clouded over
Feel like a Hurricane chaser with a storm about to break
Or a river running through a town with more than it can take

If that river breaks its banks, that river's running fast
It's gonna take out everything that's laying in its path
If there's a last man standing well it's gonna be me
If she's the last woman standing then we'll see
Oh let it pour ah let it rain
Oh let it pour ah let it rain
Let it wash away this feeling
Let it wash away this pain
Oh let it rain

There's snow in the South
There's hailstones to the West
No way of knowing what's for the best
No visibility I can speak of here
No shelter to be found either far or near

When it comes to love with her it's famine or feast
If lightning's striking in the North I'm headed East
Cause you can't fight a storm like this with two strong arms
All you do is assess the damage in the calm

Oh that storm will take it's toll cos that twister's spinning fast
It's gonna take out everything that's laying in its path
If there's a last man standing well it's gonna be me
If she's the last woman standing then we'll see
Oh let it pour ah let it rain
Oh let it pour ah let it rain
Let it wash away this feeling
Let it wash away this pain
Oh let it rain
