Lyrics

There’s a stretch of road off an unknown exit
In a sleepy county just west of Schenectady
In a motel room masked with her perfume
Unsettling mood, she sits on the bed next to me
Afternoon drags on as her cigarette fizzles out
Metaphor for all of the games we’ve been playing
Tension in the room expands like a balloon
Television on low, you couldn’t hear what they were saying
Maybe they were praying

At least I’m no longer afraid
That your love for him never went away
Because I, won’t lie here in wait
For those clouds to part on some rainy day

In a stop sign-town lined with unpaved streets
We pulled over in rural Idaho
And parked the car out by a seedy bar
Filled with women I don’t have to pretend not to know
Dimly lit halls with neon burnt walls
When the buzz kicks in we’re all levitating
But drink won’t hide when somethings gone inside
For a song and a dance, we’ll spend our whole lives waiting
Maybe we were praying

At least I’m no longer afraid
That your love for him never went away
Because I, won’t lie here in wait
For those clouds to part on some rainy day

We were saving for a rainy day and then that rainy day came
But where do you go when the wild wind blows, and you ain’t got any change?
One last hurrah to bury the flaws, preyed on by the fear that we hunt
And I don’t know if I’ll ever see her again but man, we sure had it once

Oh no I, won’t lie here in wait
For those clouds to part on some rainy day
For those clouds to part on some rainy day
For those clouds to part
