I keep my party hat by the phone
 In case she calls from that happier time zone
 I tried to chase the sun
 I tried to chase the sun
 I thought I was the one

 Rain rain go away
 Fall on a luckier day
 Rain rain go away
 Fall on a luckier day

 I keep my hope in my guitar case
 That’s where I found it in the first place
 She tries to send a smile
 She tries to send a smile
 Over the lonely miles

 Rain rain go away
 Fall on a luckier day
 Rain rain go away
 Fall on a luckier day

 We’ll find that sunken city
 To walk the streets
 And never doubt the order of things

 I keep my party hat by the phone
 In case she calls from
 That happier time zone
 I tried to chase the sun
 I tried to chase the sun
 I thought I was the one

 Rain rain go away
 Fall on a luckier day
 Rain rain go away
 Fall on a luckier day
