Lyrics Even In The Rain - The Fiery Furnaces

Even In The Rain

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
