Long ago a lonely man stood
   Off of a quiet avenue
   A pretty girl in passing chanced to look
   That's when he fell, fell for you
  
   I listen to the rain
   Pounding on the railing
   The beat's a sweet, soft refrain
   of how he found you LORRAINE
  
   He's rocking on a porch you used to know
   Here where he swore his love was true
   He sips his drink and dreams the days of old
   Of when he fell, fell for you
  
   I listen to the rain...
