Consider The Rain - Lyrics - Tanita Tikaram

I have a picture It's taken with looks It wont tell a story But I'm glad I forgot everything that you say I choose the colours And reword the lines Now somebody's second heart Ain't the first of mine Consider the rain now Out in the cold Maybe I love you But our dreams grow old Outbid my fortune Out to just win Tell me that summer Is coming on in I got my wallet Been shot from the start Feel shot when I'm feeling drained But we all know how to smile when we're falling apart You choose the colours now Let's play with the rest I never believe at all But some of us sometimes, Are just thrilled, by meeting the blessed Consider the rain now Out in the cold Maybe I love you But our dreams grow old Outbid my fortune Out to just win Tell me that summer Is coming on in I have the oath ring, somebody said Makes like a twinge running straight through my head Maybe this fortune is not what it seems Some of us pin, some of us pin time on our dreams And saved from the talk shifts Went straight to your goal Straight backed and straight laced Well, you never really Do you ever really know? I check on the same day I checked out the view I checked all the soft land Well, it comes so easy from you Consider the rain now Out in the cold Maybe I love you But our dreams grow old Outbid my fortune Out to just win Tell me that summer Is coming on in
