Caught out in the Rain
Kaurna Cronin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Won't you call to say you care
Announce you need me
Reveal new lovers aren't the same
Mouth you miss me
Confess you've been foolish
Say there'll be another way
Suggest you're a stranger
Tell me you trust me
I won't care what anybody else says

Maybe this will mean my futures filled with pain
Maybe I could never love again
Oh, it's just me out on Rundle Street
I'm caught out in the rain
I'm caught out in the rain

Admit that you're changing
Bellow your better
Repeat how this don't feel right
Holler your heartbreaks
Lead on that you lied
Torture me with words tonight
I wont care what anybody else says

Maybe this will mean my futures filled with pain
Maybe I could never love again
Oh, it's just me out on Rundle Street
I'm caught out in the rain
I'm caught out in the rain

Whisper you're wasted
shout that you're sober
Explain how you've done me wrong
Express that your hopeful
Voice that there's happiness
Tell me you've found someone

Maybe this will mean my futures filled with pain
Maybe I could never love again
Oh, it's just me out on Rundle Street
I'm caught out in the rain
I'm caught out in the rain
Oh, it's just me out on Rundle Street
And I'm caught out in the rain
(I'm caught out in the rain) I'm caught out in the rain
(I'm caught out in the rain) I'm caught out in the rain




(I'm caught out in the rain) I'm caught out in the rain
(I'm caught out in the rain) I'm caught out in the rain
