You told me that you’re going places

Why didn’t it occur to me that it would mean

That you’d be leaving me for higher spaces

Oh you’re so far away in your Rainy City

You tell me that you’re going somewhere

I tell you that I’m gonna miss you, do you care?

Don’t think you’ll ever be lonely

Oh you’ll just hide away in your Rainy City

Who’s gonna be there to hold your umbrella

I’m not going to be there in ugly weather

I just do not know why you’d ever want to leave me

You could of had your life and stayed here with me

Instead you left me for your Rainy City

You say you’re gonna be somebody

Walking around in your Gucci suit with all the paparazzi

Screw guitars you should be strumming me

I see that you’ve made a name in your Rainy City

You say you’re never gonna change

How could hope to go away and try to stay the same

Now that your goals are space needle high in the sky

You’re gonna forget me in your Rainy City

Who’s gonna be there to hold your umbrella

I’m not going to be there in ugly weather

I just do not know why you’d ever want to leave me

You could have had your life and stayed here with me.

Instead you left me for your Rainy City

You told me that you’re going places

Why didn’t it occur to me that it would mean

That you’d be leaving me for higher spaces

Oh you’re so far away in your Rainy City

You say you gonna be with me

Did you ever check and see, make sure it would be

Okay with me if I went and took my leave

So we could hide away in our Rainy City
