D
Well I am your secret, babe
D
Watch me unfold
D
Dancing in these streets so late
G
And nobody knows
D
Nobody knows us
D
The first time I looked at you
D
You looked at me
D
Swimming in this water so cool
G
Just like a river queen
D
Just like a river queen
C
And I don't remember falling asleep
G
Must have been holding on tight
C
And all I can think of and all I can dream
G
Is dancing with you at red lights
D

D
The sunshine state is closed
D
Look at the water on the road
D
And I'm gonna get in my boat
G
And to you I will float
D
And to you I will float

I looked out my window this morning
A
And I saw the strangest thing
A
Everyone was walking on water, and dancing in the rain
A
A
Oh and darling I got so jealous
A
Just wishing you were here with me
A
And I saw the prettiest people, they were kissing in the street
A
They didn't care who was watching, in the middle of the street
A
They didn't care who was watching
A
But I can see blue in the sky when it's raining
A
And I can see blue in the sky when it's raining
A
And I can see blue in the sky when it's raining
A
Raining on me, and I'm waiting on you
A (x2)
A
Just sitting here watching the weather
A
And I can feel the air's getting colder
A
They say that sometimes the sunshine at the party, well she's the first one to go
A
She doesn't give any warning, she just gets up and goes
A
She doesn't give any warning
(chorus)
A
Oh what would you do if I showed up
A
On your doorstep just ready to go?
A
Would you send me away, would you come out and play?
A
It's just a little bit of rain and I'm leaving today
A
It's just a little bit of rain and I'm leaving today
(chorus)

G
Well sunshine she came out today, it don't matter anyways

I used to hear the children play, I used to hear the birds sing

One day they just stopped, and I don't hear them anymore
Repeat Chorus!
G
G
Oh and I got caught in this whistling wind, doing my best to regret these sins
G
Lord would you forgive me if you knew I'm gonna do it again?
G
And it's not that I'm not sorry, Lord, no it's just that I'm not strong
