Raining In Baltimore Lyrics - August And Everything After - Counting Crows

This circus is falling down on its knees 

The big top is crumbling down 

It's raining in Baltimore fifty miles east 

Where you should be, no one's around 

I need a phone call 

I need a raincoat 

I need a big love 

I need a phone call 

These train conversations are passing me by 

And I don't have nothing to say 

You get what you pay for 

But I just had no intention of living this way 

I need a phone call 

I need a plane ride 

I need a sunburn 

I need a raincoat 

And I get no answers 

And I don't get no change 

It's raining in Baltimore, baby 

But everything else is the same 

There's things I remember and things I forget 

I miss you, I guess that I should 

Three thousand five hundred miles away 

But what would you change if you could? 

I need a phone call, maybe I should buy a new car 

I can always hear a freight train, baby if I listen real hard 

And I wish, I wish it was a small world 

Because I'm lonely for the big towns 

I'd like to hear a little guitar 

I guess it's time to put the top down 

I need a phone call 

I need a raincoat 

I really need a raincoat 

I really really need a raincoat 

I really really really need a raincoat 

I really need a raincoat
