It hasn't rained hard for the better part of seven months Everyone's listening All I see ahead of me are glistening lights This city stays up at night Droning along like a dissonant song by an amateur symphony How come I can only tell you I love you when you're sleeping in the passenger seat?
And all the fast cars with the broken headlights Run the red lights in the canyon And I can taste it, the rain is coming To clear the air over Los Angeles
Maybe it'll bring the hillside down Maybe it'll flood the streets Maybe when I tell you that I want you forever I'm gonna make a fool of me But I've got the windows rolled down, the heater on my feet And the skies are opening It's gonna come pouring down It's gonna come pouring out I'm gonna say everything
And all the fast cars with the broken headlights Run the red lights in the canyon But I can taste it, the rain is coming To clear the air over Los Angeles
The road is winding and it's barely lit You never know how far you're really gonna get But when you live here you just learn to get used to it
And all the fast cars and the broken headlights And running red lights in the canyon But it's raining, the haze is drowning The air is clear over Los Angeles
