There’s a girl in a raincoat
See her at the station
Where I was driving? I don’t know
Think it just stopped raining

“You look like the answer”
Said to her, to myself
What a beautiful answer
Take you downtown myself

Drop you off at your job
Say, “Don’t take nothing from no one
Can I pick you up at five?
I’ll give you time to fix up'

And I’ll make light of
The heavy day you just had
And I’ll kiss you right
And tell you a joke I just heard

You look like the answer
I’ll give you all that I can
And take you from the rain
If only this wasn’t a daydream

See you in the window
As I pull up the drive way
You’re still the girl in the raincoat
Still the girl from the first day

And I’ll make light of
The heavy day you just had
And I’ll kiss you right
And tell you a joke I just heard

You look like the answer
Give you all that I can
And take you from the rain
Take you from the rain
You look like the answer

I’ll give you all that I can
And take you from the rain
Take you from the rain
If only this wasn’t a daydream

There’s a girl in a raincoat
See her at the station
Where I was driving? I don’t know
Think it just stopped raining

If only this wasn’t a daydream
If only this wasn’t a
