In and out of honky-tonks, from one town to the next
But anything worth lovin', Lord, is just too hard to forget
Every day's another way of feeling more the same
Looks like i'll run out of highway before I outrun the rain
But it was fire and smoke
Ooh, what a rush I got when your love was hot
Oh, but I couldn't see
That when the flame burned out
You'd leave a cold, dark cloud a-raining' down on me
So i'm reaching' out to someone, wishin' he was you instead
And everything I left behind was waitin' up ahead
Pullin' on the bottle lately, looking back on you
Cause any way's the right way, babe, as long as I pull through
But it was fire and smoke
Ooh, what a rush I got when your love was hot
Oh, but I couldn't see
That when the flame burned out
You'd leave a cold, dark cloud a-raining' down on me
(ooh raining) Down on me
(ooh raining) Raining down on me
(ooh raining) Raining down on me
(ooh)
