Woke up the thunder rolling down the street Water so high it kissed my feet Coffee cold, your scent still stays Another long Memphis moaning gray But the rain won't wash you away No stone can drown what we didn't say Your ghost walks every street I own You left my heart but it ain't alone Neon signs flicker like your lies Same old jukebox playing last goodbye I see your shadow in the window pane Soaking wet, still calling my name But the rain won't wash you away No storm can drown what we didn't say Your ghost walks every street I roam You left my heart but it ain't alone I try to drink you off my tongue But every shot just proves you won River's rising but it won't break through Flooded night still brings back you City's drowning but I can't escape This love's a chain I can't break No, the rain won't wash you away No matter how hard the heavens play You carved your name in my soul to stay And the blues just won't let you fade The rain won't wash you away… The rain won't wash you away…
