Song title: “Raindrops on the Window”
Full song lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[C] Looking out the window, [G] see the raindrops fall,
[F] Thinking about you, do you [G] think of me at all?
[C] Remember how we danced, in the [G] summer rain,
[F] Now I’m left alone, with nothing [G] but the pain.
(Chorus)
[C] Raindrops on the window, [G] tears in my eyes,
[F] I see your reflection, in the [G] stormy skies.
[C] You said you’d never leave me, but [G] here I am alone,
[F] Listening to the echoes, of our [G] love that’s gone.
(Verse 2)
[C] Now the storm is passing, [G] skies are turning blue,
[F] I’m wishing on a rainbow, that [G] I’ll get back to you.
[C] But I’m left with memories, of a [G] love that was so sweet,
[F] Raindrops on the window, and [G] an empty seat.
(Chorus)
[C] Raindrops on the window, [G] tears in my eyes,
[F] I see your reflection, in the [G] stormy skies.
[C] You said you’d never leave me, but [G] here I am alone,
[F] Listening to the echoes, of our [G] love that’s gone.
