"I'm tired of the world that I'm living in.
I need to start a new life and begin again.
I don't want to be with you anymore."
With those words, her man walks right out the door.
She follows him out into the cloudy world,
And in the front yard, he says he doesn't need the girl.
She thought he'd once promised to always love her,
But now he tells her that he loves another.
Chorus: Beat down, in the rain, and she ran from him,
Slam down, on the street, 'cause she'll never win.
Tears down, on her face, what a mess she's in.
Hands up, she hopes he'll learn his lesson.
He yells in surprise and runs after her,
Hoping they'll be okay, but they never were.
His heart wants to take all of his words back,
But his head wouldn't let his mouth do that.
He finally finds her standing in the street,
Both heads and both hearts feeling incomplete.
He knows what he did what a big mistake
She hopes it's a dream from which she cannot wake.
Chorus
He should have listened to his heart,
Should have listened from the start.
Well, we all have things to learn,
And sadly this was his.
Still in the street, she falls, to her dirty knees.
His heart wants to call her in, but his head disagrees.
Too bad, to his heart, he never listened,
Too bad she didn't see the car coming.
Chorus
Beat down, in the rain, and she ran from him.
Slam down, on the street, 'cause she'll never win.
Tears down on her face, what a mess she's in.
Dear Lord, I hope he learned his lesson.
[Okay, so she shouldn't have been in the street to begin with... but still. Any suggestions? Comments?]
