Said you want to see a movie
With this rain coming down?
You said It's all a movie
When you're in a strange town
In a hotel room with a bible
And a phone book
The good news and the bad luck I said
One is going to answer you said
Jesus got my number
I don't know how
Monterey Rain
Neon and nostalgia
Is all that's left of this town
Green cup and gold
At the great feast
A Lost Fugue sounding even now
The tide comes in and the money does
Who knows how it ever was? I said
Memory is just a racket you said
Everything is racket
Even love somehow
Monterey Rain
Are you gonna hold the line?
Leave your heart out on the weather side?
Is there something left you hope to find
Or is it gone?
Alvarado up to Lighthouse
No one around
Lights change in the darkness
They don't make a sound
We were smoking in the cold rain
Standing underneath the overhang you said
It's never gonna be easy I said
I don't want it easy
I just want to know how
Monterey Rain"
