Consider The Rain Lyrics - Singles - Tanita Tikaram

I have a picture 

It's taken with looks 

It won't tell me a story 

But I'm glad I forgot everything that you say 

I change the colors 

And reword the lines 

Now somebody's second heart 

Ain't the first of mine 

Consider the rain now 

Out in the cold 

Maybe I love you 

But our dreams grow old 

Outbid my fortune 

Out to just win 

Tell me that summer 

Is coming on in 

I got my wallet 

Been shot from the start 

Feel shot when I'm feeling drained 

But we all know how to smile 

When we're falling apart 

You choose the colors now 

Let's play with the rest 

I never believe at all 

But some of us sometimes 

Are just thrilled by meeting the blessed 

Consider the rain now 

Out in the cold 

Maybe I love you 

But our dreams grow old 

Outbid my fortune 

Out to just win 

Tell me that summer 

Is coming on in 

I have the oath ring, somebody said 

Makes like the twinge running straight through my head 

Maybe this fortune is not what it seems 

Some of us pin, some of us pin time on our dreams 

And saved from the talk shifts 

Went straight to your goal 

Straight backed and straight laced 

Well, you never really 

Do you ever really know? 

I checked on the same day 

I checked out the view 

I checked all the soft land 

Well, it comes so easy from you 

Consider the rain now 

Out in the cold 

Maybe I love you 

But our dreams grow old 

Outbid my fortune 

Out to just win 

Tell me that summer 

Is coming on in
