The Rain
Si*Sé Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You were holding hands
And I'll never be the same
Where should I begin? Let's see
You said you needed space
To clear up all the haze
If you've really opened up to me
All this disarray
'Cause I saw you walking in the rain
You were holding hands
And I'll never be the same
Oh no, I'll never be the same
Oh no, never be the same
Oh no, I'll never be the same
Oh no, I'll never be the same
Oh no
The truth is always best, you see
I walk away with dignity
While you swim in regret
All that keeps popping in my head
Are some words you said to me in bed
But the love you gave is the love I'll forget
Cause I saw you walking in the rain
You were holding hands
And I'll never be the same
Oh no, I saw you and her walking in the rain
You were holding hands
You were holding hands
You were holding hands
And I'll never be the same ...
Oh no, I'll never be the same (repeat)
