Even In The Rain - The Fiery Furnaces

You wore your wrestling badge from your

Wrestling match

You wore a t-shirt over your suit that

Says you just won State

I guess I still don’t mind that you

Were late

I guess we must have done a lot of kissing

Must have known not what we were missing

She followed us to the motel and I lied

All the way

I rode on the back of your bike all the way

To Lake Geneva

I let you wear the helmet even though

You never offered anyway

Even in the rain

This could be the day the earth stood still

Take it from me I know we’ve had our fill

Never been this calm as I wander round

Never bring harm to those that I

Surround

Well I keep consuming to avoid my own

Thoughts, they tell me

Love keeping busy, love keeping busy

At any old cost

But there’s nothing I could say would

Keep my mind off of you

Well there’s nothing I could do to keep

My mind from thinking of you

Even in the rain

She followed us to the motel and I lied

All the way

I rode on the back of your bike all the way

To Lake Geneva

I let you wear the helmet even though

You never offered anyway

Even in the rain
