Deacon Blue Raintown Lyrics

Raintown Lyrics

It's a rain dirt town job hurts but it don't pay

All these calls they're making me and driving you insane

Don't you see

Don't you understand

Waiting for the phone to ring to make me all I am.

You're in the suburbs waiting for somewhere to go

I'm down here working on some dumb show



In a Raintown

Raintown

Rain down

On all those tired eyes and tears and frowns

In a Raintown

Raintown

Rain down

On all those days you're not around



It takes a big hearted girl from the North Country you can tell

How you payed those bills and went through

Heaven and hell

And you

You cried and you travelled and you spat but you never asked

Well how long how long how long is this pain

You're on for three minutes trying hard to say hello

I'm down here working on some dumb show



In a Raintown

Raintown

Rain down

On all those tired eyes and tears and frowns

In a Raintown

Raintown

Rain down

On all those days you're not around



Sitting at home listening to your radio

Listening for your old friend talking on some dumb show

What's he saying

What's he saying

What's he saying



In a Raintown

Raintown

Rain down

On all those tired eyes and tears and frowns

In a Raintown

Raintown

Rain down

On all those days you're not around



Raintown

Rain down

On all those tired eyes and tears and frowns

Raintown

Rain down

On all those days you're not around

You're not around

You're not around
