Rainy Day Lament Lyrics

Wow I feel so weird because I'm looking up a song I saw on House at 1:33 am haha. I love the songs they play in that series, and anyone would agree when I say they're all emotional tear-jerkers. This is a great song.

I especially love this when it says:

How do you feel when there's no one there on the other end of the phone

It just struck a chord as soon as I read it and songs don't usually feel so personal to me. Everyone has those times when it feels like your luck has run out, and the emotion behind this song is very profound. Especially when there are parts like that that hit home. It would always hurt so much when I would be talking to my boyfriend on the phone and all I would hear is silence, and trying to elicit a conversation just hurt even more. It's like knowing there's nothing to say.

And how am I the first to comment this song? It's a great song. Unless someone manages in the minute it's taking me to type this...?

@Benzine270 these aren't the correct or even the full lyrics. I too am watching House and the song played but it hit me for a different way. My boyfriend died 8 months ago 5 days after we moved in to our house and it all happened right in front of me. It was a shock. I found him after he'd been gone for hours. What I saw I can never unsee. He died of a heart attack in his sleep. We met in my freshman year of high school. I was 14 and I'm 44 now. He was a nonsmoker...
