I stood an hour in the rain

I stood an hour in the rain
My hand stretched out
But you were never going to come
Loneliness was all it was about.

I stood an hour in the rain
Drenched to my bones
But you were never going to show
Oh! I should have known.

I stood an hour in the rain
The passersby looking pityingly
I didn't even have an umbrella
The rain pouring down relentlessly.

I stood an hour in the rain
Waiting with a hope long lost
I wished you would have given a glimpse at least
If never called.

I stood an hour in the rain
And at long last you showed
When my body lay there on the streets
You took away my soul.
