For this tune, I was thinking about some of the really great and intricate vocal harmonies done by the Indigo Girls and wanted to incorporate something similar into this song. It sounded like something that required those kind of vocals. As to the lyrics, was just kind of thinking about the innocence of first love and all.
Lyrics
I stand outside your bedroom window in the night
Throwing pebbles at the glass
I hope the room I picked is right
I'm out here singing in the rain
With this old wet box guitar
Hoping you'll look out your windowpane
I'm out here looking like a fool
Singing love songs in the rain waiting for you
So come outside and be with me
We'll splash through puddles while we dance
Beneath this old oak tree
I don't know what I need to do
So I keep singing in the rain waiting for you
Waiting for you - to come out here and take a chance
Waiting for you - to come on out and dance
Waiting for you - to come and join me in the rain
It's a thing that I just can't explain
Standing here like a fool without a clue
Waiting for you
So if it's all the same to you
I'll be here dancing in the rain
Hoping you might join me too
The day that all my dreams come true
I'll be standing in the rain waiting for you
Waiting for you - to come out here and take a chance
Waiting for you - to come on out and dance
Waiting for you - to come and join me in the rain
It's a thing that I just can't explain
A dance card reserved for just us two
Waiting for you
Standing all alone out here
Come dance with me until the nighttime disappears
We can make the world stand still if for just a precious few
And everything stops while the world's waiting for you
I’m still standing by your window in the night
Throwing pebbles at the glass
I hope the room I picked is right
I don't know what I need to do
So I keep singing in the rain waiting for you
Waiting for you - to come out here and take a chance
Waiting for you - to come on out and dance
Waiting for you - to come and join me in the rain
It's a thing that I just can't explain
Standing here like a fool without a clue
Waiting for you
Waiting for you - to come out here and take a chance
Waiting for you - to come on out and dance
Waiting for you - to come and join me in the rain
It's a thing that I just can't explain
A dance card reserved for just us two
Waiting for you
Waiting for you
