Everything but the Girl Follow

Where the rain like your tears
Beats heavy on the roof
On the roof, above your head

Tomorrow is a lovers town
That's been beaten down
And the hand of winter holds
The life we've led

Instead of drowning in despair
For I find small comfort in a bottle when we're apart
Don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart
Don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart

I used to drive all night for you
While the children were asleep
And as the dawn broke on your room
Back into my house I'd creep

Where my husband slept alone
Of course, he must have known
But we always hide the truth
For fear of losing what we own

Don't forget the words we choose and constantly misuse
And they were written down each time we were apart
They say don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart
Don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart

Where the rain like your tears
Beats heavy on the roof
