Common As The Rain

Night before she's leaving, there's suddenly a change She slowly sits beside me and she softly calls my name And gives me an address and she says, "Come visit soon" And yesterday she wouldn't notice that I was in the room I guess she stayed awake 'cause it's so hard for her to say We both had built our hopes up, but the love just slipped away She's worried I might try to burden her with all the blame For breaking up my heart as if she'd planned it from the start Just 'cause that's the way some people do Oh, but I have been on her side of it too So I said, "Don't feel ashamed, don't feel guilty for the pain Sometimes you build your hopes up and they fall back down again" The time we had was magic and the love was not in vain And falling down's as common as the rain And something about me leaves you cold But something even you don't know And don't think that it's wrong to go, 'cause of what we had before Just leave me with those magic times, I'd rather keep you on my mind Then see you try to fake the feelings, trying not to be unkind Oh now don't feel ashamed, don't feel guilty for the pain Sometimes you build your hopes up and they fall back down again The time we had was magic and the love was not in vain And falling down's as common as the rain The only thing for certain is that nothing stays the same And falling down's as common as the rain
