When it rains I paint your front door red

Warm has the idea of home in my head

And I'm clumsy with my brush,

Paint spills on glass

When it rains I paint your front door red

Bright as the idea of a child in my head

And I'm clumsy with my heart

Dreams spill on glass

And sometimes I wanna shake you and say

Tell me how it ends

Is there a breaking point, yeah

Up around the bend

Look at me spinning my silly little hands

Look at my heart march in this one woman band

Be my oscillating pair but not my rule of thumb

Be here beside me when all, is said and done

When it rains I buy a silver dress

And I don't know if it's for sorrow or happiness

Cause I'm clumsy with my choices

I don't choose at all

When it rains I buy a silver dress

Wanna call you up tonight and say

"Be my best friend, yeah be my best friend baby"
