Joe Andrews - Seattle on My Mind

It's raining in Seattle
It always seems to be
I guess that's half the battle
The grave normality
That took a storm from blue skies
Went and labeled it routine
So no one hears the cries behind the scene

And all these words I should've said
I wrote down on your place in bed
So you can read them for yourself if you return

So let the rain fall down
To make your heart of darkness shine
Upon this storm-torn town
Seattle's on the other line
And she covers her name in glamor and fame
But it's a knockdown city on the subway train
Still I hope that you find there's nothing to hide
I've got Seattle on my mind

The weatherman's been watching
And praying for a change
But every night he cautions
The clouds are on their way
He walks out in the downpour
Lets the heavens drown his day
So all Seattle knows he feels the same

And all the actions I regret
I rolled inside this cigarette
So I can leave my words of yesterday to burn

So let the rain fall down
To make your heart of darkness shine
Upon this storm-torn town
Seattle's on the other line
And she covers her name in glamor and fame
But it's a knockdown city on the subway train
Still I hope that you find there's nothing to hide
I've got Seattle on my mind, yes I do

And all the love you never knew
I hid inside this song for you
So I will never question if my voice was heard

So let the rain fall down
To make your heart of darkness shine
Upon this storm-torn town
Seattle's on the other line
And she covers her name in glamor and fame
But it's a knockdown city on the subway train
Still I hope that you find, there's nothing to hide
I've got Seattle on my mind
