I remember when we first met
Before I was invisible
I thought, I'd play it hard to get
Pretend I was unapproachable

But somebody else came along and
Took all the chances that I missed
Stuck on the sidelines
I keep thinking there she goes

Falling like rain
No, I don't get to hold her tonight
Falling like rain
I was pushed to the back of the line

'Cos even though I need her love and crave her touch
I guess, I wasn't fast enough
She's falling like rain
Just not for me, not for me

Why I took the longest road?
I'll have to plead insanity
It's like my pride put on a show
And didn't sell a single seat

While I was talking in riddles
Somebody else made perfect sense
Stuck on the outside
I keep thinking there she goes

Falling like rain
No, I don't get to hold her tonight
Falling like rain
I was pushed to the back of the line

'Cos even though I need her love and crave her touch
I guess, I wasn't fast enough
She's falling like rain
Just not for me, not for me

What do you do?
What do you say?
When the best thing has passed you by
Where do you go?
How do you know?
If she'll come back another time

She's falling like rain, falling like rain
She's falling like rain, oh, oh, oh
She's falling like rain, falling like rain
She's falling like rain, she's falling
She's falling like rain
