These days, with the world getting colder,
She spends more time sleeping over
Than I planned.

Tonight we're gonna order in,
Drinking wine and watchin' CNN.
It's dark I know, but then again
It's the brightest thing I got

'Cause I'm covered in rain
No, I'm covered in rain, rain, rain, rain

Fireworks to fireplaces
Summer stole what fall replaces
We're people watching, all the people watching, everybody watching me
Standing by the missing signs at the CVS by the checkout line
She puts her quiet hands in mine
'Cause she's the brightest thing I got

When I'm covered in rain
'Cause I'm covered in rain, rain, rain, rain
'Cause I'm covered in rain
No I'm covered in rain

It's alright
If you don't want to, go on
It's alright
If you don't want to, be alone
Oh It's alright
If you don't want to, want to, want to, go home

I understand, I understand, I understand,
You and me and everyone

I'm covered in rain
No, I'm covered in rain
No, I'm covered in rain, rain, rain, rain
I'm covered in, covered in, covered in rain

    I think the last verse says:

    Now I'm standing facing west Tracing my fingers around (a)* sillhouette I haven't gotten used to yet But it's the brightest thing I got

    This is probably about when he was getting ready to move to LA and leave NYC. He's lost his girl and is leaving the city, which i think is what City Love is leading up to (watch the dvd), he falls in love for all the wrong reasons with this girl and the city. He's looking a LA as the best thing he's got going on right now.
