lyrics

The night that you drove out there were black clouds in the sky
And the back roads seemed to shimmer like the soft look in your eye
Before the rain, oh before the rain

There was nothing but to ride home on a long train from New York
And the bolts of lightning tried to cage me in as the earth shook
Before the rain, oh before the rain

But my mind was already crossing the state border in your car
And we were singin’ with the west wind as it moved in
towards the mountains

Oh, why do I always seem to sway
When the calling of my heart’s like the rumbling of a train
Oh, why does it always seem to happen this way
That my dreams get flooded in the Colorado rain

Was the night when I realized that I gave away my heart
To a boy who couldn’t keep it from a million miles apart
Before the rain, oh before the rain

But the land doesn’t know the difference between right and fair
And any love new like the dew will soon return to air
Before the rain, oh before the rain

But the skies didn’t know that I would fight the great dark clouds
Until they silenced my claims to make it to the mountains

Oh why do I always seem to sway
When the calling of my heart’s like the rumbling of a train
Oh why does it always seem to happen this way
That my dreams get flooded in the Colorado rain

Oh, oh
