Covered In Rain
John Mayer · Any Given Thursday [Live] Disc 2
These days, with the world getting colder,
She spends more time sleeping over
Than I planned.
Tonight we're gonna order in,
Drinking wine and watchin CNN.
It's dark I know, but then again
It's the brightest thing I got
When I'm covered in rain
Now, I'm covered in rain, rain, rain, rain
Fireworks to fire places
Summer stolen, fall replaces
Now we're people watching other people, people watching us right back now
Standing by the missing signs at the CVS by the checkout line
She puts her quiet hands in mine
Cause she's the brightest thing I got
When I'm covered in rain
Cause I'm covered in rain, rain, rain, rain
Cause I'm covered in rain
No I'm covered in rain
Well come December Lydia left
Mentioned something bout it being for the best
And somehow I can't disagree
It's killing me
And now I'm standing facing west
Tracing my fingers round her silhouette
I haven't gotten used to it
But it's the brightest thing I've got
When I'm covered in rain
Rain
When I'm covered in rain
Rain
Rain
Rain
She spends more time sleeping over
Than I planned.
Tonight we're gonna order in,
Drinking wine and watchin CNN.
It's dark I know, but then again
It's the brightest thing I got
When I'm covered in rain
Now, I'm covered in rain, rain, rain, rain
Fireworks to fire places
Summer stolen, fall replaces
Now we're people watching other people, people watching us right back now
Standing by the missing signs at the CVS by the checkout line
She puts her quiet hands in mine
Cause she's the brightest thing I got
When I'm covered in rain
Cause I'm covered in rain, rain, rain, rain
Cause I'm covered in rain
No I'm covered in rain
Well come December Lydia left
Mentioned something bout it being for the best
And somehow I can't disagree
It's killing me
And now I'm standing facing west
Tracing my fingers round her silhouette
I haven't gotten used to it
But it's the brightest thing I've got
When I'm covered in rain
Rain
When I'm covered in rain
Rain
Rain
Rain
