If you could only come by here today
Maybe the hours we spend wouldn't waste us away
Like the rain on my tin roof

It is a wonderful day to remain
Indoors where grey open windows will calmly relate
For the rain on my tin roof

I know I know that you have to go
Back to the place you came from

I miss that look that you have on your face
While you are sleepily breathing and all I am hearing
Is rain on my tin roof

And if there were ever a reason to stay
Turn off my phone and become one with you and my bed
It's the rain on my tin roof

I know I know that you have to go
Back to the place you came from
I know I know that you have to go
Back to the place you came from
