In a rusted red chevy with a heart full of glory she left that night
a suitcase at the door open wide let the cold air come in then she asked me for a light
said she had some old business see an old friend or maybe make a new start
but the words of her reason they changed with the season the truth burned in my heart
it blew me away and i thought i'd go crazy
cause i knew even then i was caught
Caught in the rain again
i pray to the heavens to defend me
i'm caught in the rain
why's it seem like more rain that they send me
So i listen to the wind for the answer
time hangs heavy on y face
run from the storm that's on it's way
till i find there is no place no person no thing i can run to
no shelter i can gain from the rain
yes i know this time it's too late
Chorus
And the rain comes down so silently
and time stand's still like it's in front of me
and the years turn to the rain
and the silence kills me
Now in this one horse town bar
i sing in the back room in the december night
here she comes through the doorway
with a blustering wind that's too cold to forget
she looked like she knew me the heat shot through me melted me down
so we sat and talked about the old days or the new things that we found
we talked about the days when we were so much younger and innocent
we saw it plain we were just caught in the rain
Chorus
