Yesterday i heard the rain, Whispering your name, Asking where you'd gone . . .
It fell softly from the clouds On the silent crowds, As i wandered on . . .
Out of doorways Black umbrellas came to pursue me, Faceless people as they passed Were looking through me, No one knew me . . .
Yesterday i shut my eyes, Face-up to the skies, Drinkin' in the rain . . .
But your image still was there Floating in the air, Brighter than a flame . . .
Yesterday i saw a city, Full of shadows without pity, And i heard the steady rain, Whispering your name, Whispering your name . . .
