Intro
Verse 1
Did you stand there all alone
Oh, I cannot explain what's goin' down
I can see you standin' next to me
In and out somewhere else right now
You sigh look away
I can see it clear as day
Close your eyes so afraid
Hide behind that baby face
Interlude
Doot do do, doot-do do
Chorus 1
You can drive all night
Looking for the answers in the pouring rain
You wanna find peace of mind
Lookin' for the answer
Interlude
Verse 2
Funny how it seems like yesterday
As I recall you were lookin' out of place
Gathered up your things and slipped away
No time at all I followed you into the hall
Cigarette daydream
You were only seventeen
So sweet with a mean streak
Nearly brought me to my knees
Interlude
Doot do do, doot-do do
Chorus 2
You can drive all night
Lookin' for the answers in the pouring rain
You wanna find peace of mind
Lookin' for the answer
If we could find a reason, a reason to change
Lookin' for the answer
If you can find a reason, a reason to stay
Standin' in the pourin' rain
Instrumental
Doot-do, do-di-do-di-do Doot-do, do-di-do-di-do
Doot-do, do-di-do-di-do Doot-do, do-di-do-di-do
Chorus 2 (quiet first time)
You can drive all night
Lookin' for the answers in the pourin' rain
You wanna find peace of mind
Lookin' for the answer
If we can find a reason, a reason to change
Lookin' for the answer
If you can find a reason, a reason to stay
Standin' in the pourin' rain
