I know that since you’ve gone away
I may not ever love again,
For you destroyed my chances when
You left me crying in the rain.
My heart was broken when you left.
I know I’ve never felt such pain,
And nothing’s hurt as much as when
You left me crying in the rain.
I felt so empty without you.
I truly felt I had been slain,
And I cannot forget the way
You left me crying in the rain.
