I wore out my welcome as the days grew thin 
In this Belfast town 
It's like I've been waitin' 'til my life begins 
And love comes around 

I wander through the streets and I see them look away 
The wind hits my bones as they whisper your name 
I go out walking in the cold Irish rain 

Verse II: 
Fed up with the landlord comin' down my door 
With his poison gaze 
I've stared out his window and I've walked the floor 
Of this sorry place 

I'll take comfort in the cold until I find my faith again 
Oh God know I've tried but I just can't fit in 
I go out walking in the cold Irish rain 

Bridge: 
What I'd give to see the sun on your face 
To lose myself, in a long embrace 
How I'd love to hear the band start to play 
As you turn me around, Oh I long for the day 

Solo: 

Verse III: 
The last of the ramblin' boys has lost his way 
In these broken times 
They sold off your story and they stole your rage 
With this heart of mine 

They pulled you from your sleep and they covered up your name 
Now on Sundays they pray to see you again 
I go out walking in the cold Irish rain 

I go out walking in the cold Irish rain 
I go out walking in the cold Irish rain... 

In the rain, in the rain.
