We went through love and devotion
We saw some sorrow and pain
It took many years to get myself right
But now I’m smiling in the rain
Bluewater fish in the ocean
You always liked them in the spring
The way the sun reflected off of the water
It always made you sing
The cold hard truth
We lived fast and loose
I wish I could explain
Now every mile I roam no matter how far from home
Well I’m smiling in the rain
Yes I’m smiling in the rain
Down on these golden state streets
Where the shadows and the silhouettes meet
The magnolias in your hair
It all feels too real
It’s just love’s lost dream
My love, the time it has passed
Each memory catches me less than the last
All it takes is just one drop
And I’m right back, yes I’m right back
The cold hard truth
You live fast and loose
It all gets set ablaze
Now I can be on my own no matter how far from home
And be smiling in the rain
Yes I’m smiling in the rain
The cold hard truth
You live fast and loose
It all gets set ablaze
Now every mile I roam no matter how far from home
Well I’m smiling in the rain
Yes I’m smiling in the rain
