I ain't used to sittin' on the wire, babe But I thought I'd give it a try All I know is it makes me feel tired, babe Without you I just fall all the time I ain't used the standin' on the sea, babe Without your hand to steady the waves Now a chilly breeze and I feel frail, babe Sinkin' to the bottom of the night Should've kissed you by the piano Should've held you in the rain Seems like these moments come to pass us by Feel like they'd never be the same Should've hid you in the shadows So they don't look to you as prey Could've made you feel so strong by now Put you in the summer rain I ain't used to starin' at the dark, babe You've seen me through all the summer year But you are never there, I'm at my best, babe And the light, it's found a new place to live I ain't used to watchin' the clouds pass by The green grass feels nothin' like your hair If I'm asked to stay another day here I might as well join them up there and fly Should've kissed you by the piano Should've held you in the rain Seems like these moments come to pass us by Feel like they'd never be the same Should've hid you in the shadows So they don't look to you as prey Could've made you feel so strong by now Put you in the summer rain I ain't used to skippin' down the lane, babe With all the trees, a blossomed spring But now, since I know that you are gone for good I'm leaving with the breath of the wind Should've kissed you by the piano Should've held you in the rain Seems like these moments come to pass us by Feel like they'd never be the same Should've hid you in the shadows So they don't look to you as prey Could've made you feel so strong by now Put you in the summer rain
