Lyrics

The rains keep coming down, but that won't bring you back again
This monsoon will break your heart and toss it to the wind
This road of heartache, this road of tears
I'll keep on a keeping on till I get to the end
Maybe one day I'll get, back on track again

When I left I didn't know, thought she'd be here
I remember how we used to laugh before the rains set in
I'm driving way too fast, hope I don't take a spin
It's best to live day by day but it's so hard my friend

Searching through these crowds, through these crowds again
Searching, Searching, Searching through these crowds again
the rains keep coming down, but that won't bring you back again

This monsoon will break your heart and toss it to the wind
The rains keep coming down, coming down again
I'm driving way too fast, wish you were still here

This is a cool 80's vibe tune with a vintage glide synth part lurking throughout. The vocal is processed in a way that gives it some serious mystery and interest. Cool break/section at ~1:20 mark. I could actually see this used in TV/Film or Video as a underscore in a scene appropriate setting . Cool piece.
