Walking in the Rain
(Inspired by Billie Holiday's famous quote.)

Might have known you for an hour
Might have known you for some years
Boy, you’ve got some kind of power
That activates my fears
There’s a smoking gun behind your eyes
Gives me chills I can’t explain
Don’t threaten me with love baby
Let’s just go walking in the rain
Let’s go walking in the rain

I’ve been sitting in the shadows
My back against the wall
Pretending I don’t notice you
Don’t see anything at all
I’m afraid that I’m in danger
And I won’t survive the pain
Don’t threaten me with love baby
Let’s just go walking in the rain
Let’s just go walking in the rain
Let’s go walking in the rain
I want to go walking in the rain

I might love you for a minute
I might love you for a day
I might love you for a lifetime
I might turn and run away
The feelings that I have for you
Are driving me insane
Don’t threaten me with love baby
Let’s just go walking in the rain
Let’s just go walking in the rain
I want to go walking in the rain
Walking in the rain.
