Everclear - Portland Rain lyrics

I stand out breaking in the Portland rain I see the end there in your eyes as I watch you drive away I walk back blind into my cold dreamhouse And I think about the damage I put the big light out I sit down smoking on my basement floor I hear footsteps up above me They are right outside my front door The only place that I want to be Is watching you move up on top of me The only sound that I want to hear Is the rain against my window as you whisper in my ear Baby, you know I love it when you call me baby I go upstairs and find my twelve-year-old She's got tears running down her face Sitting sad at my piano She sings soft words from that old Beatles song And I think about my yesterday and all the things I did wrong The only place that I want to be Is watching you sweet dream in bed right next to me The only sound that I want to hear Is the rain against my window as I pull you near Don't give up on me Baby, can't you you see? We could make this be the way it used to be Don't give up on me I wish I could make you see That I am changing everyday, trying to build a better me We could make this be the way it's supposed to be Don't give up on me I stand out in the rain where I watched you drive away I never thought I would live to see this fucked-up day I stand out in the rain in the middle of the night I wish that it could wash away the beast inside The only thing I want to do is kiss you when I am coming deep inside of you The only sound that I want to hear Is the rain against my window as I hold you Don't give up on me Oh baby, can't you see? We could make this be the way it used to be Don't give up on me I wish I could make you see that I am changing everyday Trying to build a better me We could make this be the way it's supposed to be Don't give up on me
